For some reason I did not know that "verify web login" makes the accounts relogin again every time I use it.
which of course causes problems and lowers the trust score of the accounts (or so I have been told)
I have been doing "Verify web login" at least 3x per week since I started using twitterdub, and got a lot of bans / arkose.
Is it possible that this was at least partially the reason for so many bans / arkose?
I used "Verify web login" often

It doesn't, it tests the cookies by default, so will pull the timeline if that works, we all good.
If you UNCHECK use cookiers, then it goes through the login process
Not really. People MAY think that, or hear it rumoured. But there is no evidence. I test my test accounts all the time, more than most for login and they are fine.which of course causes problems and lowers the trust score of the accounts (or so I have been told)

What proxies you using?
What are you doing as well?
As I said, unless you remove cookies, tell the program to login WITHOUT cookies, all you are doing is checking the timeline, which is an activity accounts do 100s of times a day in normal usage

I was always having "Use cookies" checked when doing so.
residential proxies, but now Im in the process of switching to 4g proxies
will give an update on how it goes after some testing.
twitterdub will use the same cookies every time it does actions, right? also heard its important not to refresh cookies often

cookies update everytime you do something potentially. Twitter returns a response that may update / add / modify cookies. It's how cookies work
The program works with cookies, the same as chrome / firefox will when you do anything in twitter.com

they update, but the majority of the cookie stays the same right? or does it change completely?

Cookies are a collection of name=value pairs
they can be added / removed / modified as the site wishes.
there is usually a login / session token, to show you have logged in, that may not change, but there is nothing to say it doesn't.
It's just a name=value pair list the site can use as it wishes
