Some thoughts on how useful Anubis really is. Combined with comments I read elsewhere about scrapers starting to solve the challenges, I’m afraid Anubis will be outdated soon and we need something else.

    The ddos is caused by the gatekeeping, there was no such issue before the 2023 API wars, fork over the goods and nobody gets hurt, it’s not complicated, you want to publish information to the public, don’t scrunch it up behind diseased trackers and ad infested pages which burn you cpu cycles. Or just put it in a big tarball torrent, the web is turning into a cesspool, how long until our browsers don’t even query websites at all but self-hosted crawler and search like searxng, at least then I won’t be catching cooties from your javascript cryptomining bots embed into the pages !
