The army of Al crawlers just leveled upand hit us very badly.The good news: We're keeping up with theadditional load of new users moving toCodeberg. Welcome aboard, we're happy tohave you here. After adjusting the Al crawlerprotections, performance significantly improvedagain.It seems like the Al crawlers learned how tosolve the Anubis challenges. Anubis is a toolhosted on our infrastructure that requiresbrowsers to do some heavy computation beforeaccessing Codeberg again. It really saved ustons of nerves over the past months, because itsaved us from manually maintaining blocklists tohaving a working detection for "real browsers"and "Al crawlers".However, we can confirm that at least Huaweinetworks now send the challenge responses andthey actually do seem to take a few seconds toactually compute the answers.

I’m pretty happy with the snippet feeds so next #Fedicat build you can select it from the preset app settings which turns on the snippets and otherwise uses the max post display options when you tap on the snippet. Or you can turn on the individual snippet option and mix it how you like with other display customizations
