  • I think this would be the only way. It would be interesting to knowing how much traffic or requests this instance gets to see if its a real problem. Server admins could implement stricter rate limiting for non-members if it becomes an issue. They could even likely implement something that could allow them to sort out which of their members are making the most requests to have some visibility. I don’t believe this is something that is possible today from within platform anyway.

    There’s really two issues here:

    1. If users are ok and even aware that their public conversations are certainly going to be picked up and used for future models
    2. Are the lemmy instance admins ok with potentially half of their traffic going to bots that are hoarding and scrapping the data causing additional load on the servers.

    Maybe @TheDude@sh.itjust.works would be open to share some insights regarding to the amount of requests is received per month and how much resources its taking






  • I’ve been looking at gitea because of its gitops capabilities that seem to be pretty much on par with github actions. Do you know if forgejo has something similar? There seems to be a lack of documentation in that area. This has been my only reason for not moving to forgejo but im hoping im wrong and just missed some documentation.

    EDIT: Thank you all who provided some additional insights that I was missing. I’ll take the leap and give forgejo a try!
