My server was REALLY sluggish on Wednesday. Finally looking at the load logs and… yeah, load up at 5-15 on a quad-core Raspberry Pi, with transmitted data an order of magnitude higher than usual.

Looking into IPs now to find more bot host ranges to block. One of the top groups is LOTS of different IPs from Digital Ocean's 137.184.0.0/16 range 🧐
