Poor lemmy server went from constant 80-100% cpu load to gently coasting.
That thing must have been dragging things down for months, if not years.

Which bot did you block?
Unclear - it didn’t have a useragent, but it was scraping all the posts:
/api/v3/post/list?limit=50&sort=Old&page=56273- it was on page 56273. The IP address is associated with a VPN, so I’m sure they’ll try through some other way - but that won’t help them :PI don’t know what they plan to gain from this anyway - they’re better off scraping this content directly from Reddit themselves. I know a bot that shows how to do it ;)
