OP here. I think I will go with Java too. I am more used to it than JS. Can you recommend some technologies to set up the basic server? It doesnt have to have an UI, but use SQL (no Mongo) and run in parallel on multiple VMs (with same DB), so I think I cant just start everything up with XAMPP.
Jsoup html parser for java.
Thank me later op.

black widows are pretty docile, you can actually handle them without them biting.

You don't need a lot of common sense to just know that spiders need to fucking die and extinct
