I hope AI follows the same fate as NFTs, as in: it's probably still a thing, but it's easy to ignore because people and companies stopped shoving it in everyone's face

I was worried I had hit a general problem with Iceshrimp.NET, right after committing to switch to it for real. That would've sucked so badly

If anyone faces the same problem, the following Caddy rule solved it:

@lanodan They have valid domains in the User-Agent and also provide a signature. The domains seem to match the IP address Caddy reports

Volpeon

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip

@lanodan They keep requesting the same things over and over: Webfinger of my account, account itself, the featured collection, and my pinned post (+ parents).

Volpeon

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip

@lanodan According to the User-Agent, there's 2.7.0, 2.7.1 and 2.6.50-890-g6141fd10.main+soapbox (possible some more). Seem to be the same handful of instances so I might just reject their requests for now

edit: Got one more version: 2.6.52-1039-g3c1db78a-develop

Looks like my instance has become slow because Pleroma-based ones are absolutely hammering it with requests
