The shutters weren’t closed yet, so I noticed some nice color reflections outside. I checked the other cardinal direction and lo and behold: https://lyse.isobeef.org/2026-09-21-abendhimmel/ Just in time. Contrary to what I first thought, I hadn’t missed the best part yet. :-)

Aha, @david@daiwei.me was revealed to be hammering against @aelaraji@aelaraji.com’s door! :-D
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Haha 🤣 I’ve found the only effective defense is to make the request(s) cost you nothing or very little. Trying to defeat all this en-mass scraping/crawling and defective bots is such a PITA 🤦♂️

Works here too
