Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | In reply to @fenuks:sibnsk.net Closed registration on my server for a while, too many bots registering. Usually it falls off after a while. And again | 16:13:17 |
@farribeiro:matrix.org | Is there no way to permanently solve it? | 16:29:49 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | None that I know of. Some are not bots, but that does not make them any better… | 16:31:44 |
@farribeiro:matrix.org | Is it not possible to limit access to accounts limited to a few devices? | 16:33:48 |
@farribeiro:matrix.org | Is it not possible to limit access to accounts to a few devices? | 16:34:11 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | In reply to @farribeiro:matrix.org Is it not possible to limit access to accounts limited to a few devices? What do you mean? | 16:34:15 |
@farribeiro:matrix.org | Account creation is unavoidable, but the attacker uses the same device/ip in most cases to orchestrate the bots | 16:35:48 |
@farribeiro:matrix.org | Unless the orchestration is distributed | 16:36:21 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | Apparently it is, I can't find many duplicates | 16:52:18 |

Austin Huang | @room i rewrote the server list at https://servers.joinmatrix.org/ . it has not been pushed to prod and comments are welcome before i actually do so | 05:13:15 |
Philantrop 🏳️🌈 | In reply to @austin:tchncs.de @room i rewrote the server list at https://servers.joinmatrix.org/ . it has not been pushed to prod and comments are welcome before i actually do so Personally, I prefer much the table as it is much clearer at first glance. Yes, it's less glossy but that's a bonus in my book. :) | 05:16:02 |
Philantrop 🏳️🌈 | I had rather hoped for being able to filter and sort the table in order to choose the ideal server. | 05:16:52 |
Austin Huang | In reply to @philantrop:mailstation.de I had rather hoped for being able to filter and sort the table in order to choose the ideal server. so do i but i'm still kinda new to writing web apps so not for now | 05:17:19 |
Philantrop 🏳️🌈 | Sure, it's your "baby" anyway. :-) | 05:17:44 |
Stefan Ubbink | it would be nice to have an explanation what the tags mean somewhere on the page (at the top?) | 05:21:44 |
Austin Huang | In reply to @stefan:ubbink.org it would be nice to have an explanation what the tags mean somewhere on the page (at the top?) yeah maybe i'll make a banner linking to the information pages where i put legends | 05:22:20 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | Austin Huang: You have automation that checks if server is online, regs open, what version it has? | 05:22:46 |
Austin Huang | In reply to @fenuks:sibnsk.net Austin Huang: You have automation that checks if server is online, regs open, what version it has? yes | 05:23:22 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | Okay. I guess I'm a bit tiresome with all the temporary closing registration… | 05:24:05 |
Austin Huang | it's the same as the old list, every 4 hours, except those that closed registrations or were offline would just be pushed to the bottom; previously the former would disappear and the latter would be shown as "error" | 05:26:45 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | Ah, okay. My regs are open for 2 days now, so I was wandering | 05:27:44 |
Austin Huang | also bash script gets quite messy so now i just use node.js for both the website and the pinger | 05:27:50 |
Austin Huang | oh i didn't put u on the list | 05:27:59 |
Austin Huang | i will do that | 05:28:03 |
Fеnикs [sibnsk.net] | Okay. I have strong suspicion that those bots are parsing the list. Right now there's not that many new registrations. Once sibnsk shows up on the list I'm pretty sure regs will spike. | 05:30:18 |
