Does this happen to everyone else too?

I feel Microsoft is becoming more aggressive. Before, it took months to get a 30-minute limit, but now, in just one month, many of my accounts are temporarily restricted.

Generally yes, it's partly controlled by the min/max time between searches. If you have more than one account, you can use clusters to run both+ simultaneously. To speed things up further, you can also use the parallel setting to run both the desktop and mobile searches concurrently as well.

Some accounts require a 'cooldown' between searches (see #29), so you may want to stick to defaults. You may also want to check your logs to see if all searches are gaining points. If it's stuck not giving you points after a few tries you may actually want to increase the minimum time between searches to make sure each search counts.

My mobile device no longer calculates points at all.

Does anyone know the reason for mobile search issue?

When I use the same UA and the same keyword to search on Chrome on my computer, the points are counted properly.

But when I run the script (with headless mode disabled), I noticed that the mobile search results are clearly problematic—the returned results seem poorly correlated with the search keyword.
