metascraper VS url-metadata-scraper

Yep but there is a fallback to metascraper [0] which does check the HTML tags. However the fallback didn't work in case GPT returns a 1970 date -- I just fixed this! [1]

I think you can now remove the date from your post content and it should still work. If you submit your website again it should do a re-scrape if you changed the content text. Thanks for catching this :)

I am using this library https://github.com/microlinkhq/metascraper but it doesn't catch it.

First of all, we'll use the got npm package to fetch the website content (feel free to use any other fetching library), and the metascraper npm package to extract the metadata:

> After that, pricing starts at $25 per month for up to 15,000 requests.

This is very expensive for any decent usage. I have used tools like metascraper for this purpose and it worked pretty well. Setup just requires throwing a tiny nodejs app on a raspberry pi or $5 server and that can handle tons of requests.
