Might be a bit offtopic, but I really like that it feels like a real human wrote this blog post. I'm reading way too many blog posts, along with GitHub PRs and Issues, that just seem AI generated. This style of writing is just nice

This wasn‘t recommended officially by the authors, right? I saw it on someone‘s codeberg fork but not on the official repo

Zedeus said "it's hopefully temporary, but it'll remain that way until further notice." in the matrix room

I thought about it from functioning perspective, but yeah, legally it might‘ve been a bit dubious

Sorry, didn‘t see it in the search before I submitted it

Nitter itself is still fine, there are like 2 public-ish instances I‘m aware of but I think people should go out and host some in more private communities/run one over Tor or something

Forgejo, and by extent Codeberg, has the punchcard-like feature, it‘s just hidden under „Public activity“ on the profile page

My gitea instance was only ~6 DB migrations beyond where Forgejo was at when I decided to switch, so I just undo‘d those and upgraded anyways. Works just fine, but I was really lucky that they weren‘t any big migrations. I guess isn‘t really as feasible anymore.

Not sure, I couldn‘t find those fingerprints anywhere and I couldn‘t replicate them in any browser I had access to (Safari iOS, Windows & Linux Firefox & Chromium), so I decided to block them. I haven‘t had a single person complain yet. Their UA are usually the most random ones you can find (who uses a PPC mac nowadays?)

+1, but I think the documentation surrounding this should be a bit better. I didn‘t know they did this until I read that comment

He said OpenAI in the comment (if I read it correctly)

Regarding the residental botnets: check their TLS fingerprint, they usually (at least from my experience) have the same few JA4 hashes that don‘t match with modern browsers

Works, thanks!
