Reason for closing:  Deferred
Additional comments about closing:  "It is functionally identical to using requests directly, just like 'url' job." Will pull in pyppeteer as an optdep once there's a release with this sorted out.

Will put this on hold until https://github.com/thp/urlwatch/pull/355 is merged and hopefully pyppeteer sees another release. The PR uses pyppeteer directly.
