Happy holidays everyone! I'm playing with FreeBSD today and managed to get a copy of my website running at https://bsd.kedara.eu It's powered by Caddy running in a (Bastille) jail, so far so good. I'm using blocklistd to block IPs that try to login via SSH using pf, this works great as well.

Now my question is: does anyone know how to combine blocklistd (or pf) with Caddy, so I can block abusive bots for instance?

Edit: to clarify, I'm wondering if there's a solution without the logfile parsing step that fail2ban uses. Like in sshd (it uses blocklistd directly); I'm not sure how that works exactly, though...

Any advice and boosts are appreciated.

A journey which started during covid, to daily drive a linux phone (#pinephone). Now I can happily say the calling functionality which I was looking for in linux phone is quite stable on Lenovo A6000 #postmarketos edge #sxmo ui.

All my old phones installed with postmarketos SXMO UI.
Thanks to postmarketos, sxmo developers and @pocketvj for additional customizations on top of sxmo.
Phones from top to bottom Lenovo A6000, Moto G (2015), Samsung On6/J6. And each old device can still be used with unlimited possibilities.

We apologize for the long performance degradation today.
Finally, we identified all of the 'tricks' that AI crawlers found today. They no longer bypass the anubis proof of work challenges.

A novelty for us was that AI crawlers seem to not only crawl URLs that are actually presented to them by our frontend, but they converted the URLs into a format that bypassed our filter rules.

By the way, you can track the changes we have been doing via
