The funny thing is that the Lemmy nodes are synchronized with each other, and to calculate the real address of any Federation node, it is enough to raise a node, write a comment in the interested node, and then reply to yourself from that node. Done. Real IP in you node logs. However, everyone continues to use Cloudflare... This will only protect you from technically illiterate people.
The point of cloudflare isn't just to hide your real IP. It's the caching, bot scrape protection, etc.
And an ai slop trainer blocker, which is a fucking godsend.
Yeah. I'm going to figure out another solution but this is a big one.
If you are technically capable, Anubis is an option.
Yeah that's what I'm looking at for my instance.
And all this is done with a single entry in hosts after receiving the real address. After all, knowing the real address, the bot doesn't have to go through cloudflare. The only good argument is caching, and it can be implemented independently. I find it strange to give all the traffic, including authorization, to cloudflare decrypt for the sake of caching.
You can simply configure your server to reject non-cloudflare traffic.
