the only real way of preventing shit like this is going whitelist only instead of open federation which should've been the default all along.

@raven also, to post it publicly:

putting this in your nginx config will cause all requests made by user agents containing "misskey" to bounce with a 403

if ($http_user_agent ~* (misskey)) {
return 403;
}

@raven just wanna add that this is a temporary fix i am implementing on my own instance, not something i'd necessarily recommend anyone do without thinking it through first since there *are* legitimate misskey instances out there and we have no real way of knowing if it's gonna keep sticking to just misskey instances.
