Good to see an alternative to Anubis - with a reduced or configurable legitimate user impact
https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away/
This tool started as a way to replace Anubis as it was not found as featureful as desired, and the impact was too high.
go-away may not be as straight to configure as Anubis but this was chosen to reduce impact on legitimate users, and offers many more options to dynamically target new waves.
Definitely! The author is super friendly in IRC too (and Xe, the anubis author, is there as well lol)
I went down a very similar path with my constantly bombarded Gitea server… iterating from IP blocking to Traefik rate limiting to finally settling on the nuclear option of Anubis. It’s so worth it.
This was really interesting and informative. I enjoyed it. Well done and thank you for sharing it with us here!
