How exactly do you imagine moderating an instance works? As admins and mods, we don’t sit in front of the user list all day watching what every user is up to. 80% of the time, we rely on accounts like that being reported.

Just installed via Ansible and it’s running without any issues so far. As far as I could tell visually, it’s running much faster.

They can, yeah. But they haven’t done it in ages and I don’t see the risk for the user; the IP is way more problematic.

generally the bots that scrape sites for information. One of the easiest ways to exclude them is to read the user agent.

yeah, this info isn’t necessary for technical operations, but some software uses it and shows the client under the post, for example; as an admin, that often helps me identify problems quickly.

Could you explain the use case? I don’t quite understand the background. Now that AIs are flooding the instances, some admins are blocking these kinds of requests.
