I just installed the Ultimate Bad Bot Blocker on our Mastodon server. It blocks bad bots, spam referrers, vulnerability scanners, malicious user agents, malware, adware, ransomware, and other harmful bots. It also includes anti-DDoS protection and a Fail2Ban jail for repeat offenders

Sorry for not accepting new users to our instance for days - I've just been so busy that I missed the notifications. New users are still welcome.
Jaahas, vanha ongelma on palannut. Opengraph-kuva ei taaskaan tule näkyviin, tai tulee tosi pitkän ajan kuluttua.
The long text "You are not allowed to quote this post" makes the boost pop-up too long because it doesn't wrap properly. This might get fixed in the final version, but for now, I'm changing it to a single-word message for our instance.

Opastettu kierros Kumpulan kasvitieteellisessä puutarhassa -mahtava!
Kiehtovia yksityiskohtia hyötykasveista, kuten alvejuuresta (se saniaisen näköinen ihan tuttu kasvi), jonka ansiosta Suomeen perustettiin ensimmäinen lääketehdas tuottamaan matolääkettä jo 1800-luvun alkupuolella!
