@weirdwriter sadly blocking scrapers is a never-ending battle. I try my best keeping an up-to-date list of ip's and user-agents to block for pixie.town, but there's new ones all the time, and particularly motivated attackers will always be able to evade shit.

Or in the case of Mastodon, just be able to get access to the same toots etc through webviews of other instances. I just suspended ryanak.xyz because they explicitly reverted the OpenAI block on their instance... https://github.com/Ryanaka/mastodon/commit/25e94fbe90f8aafcba1b292b6646cb28c814f28b
