WOAH WOAH WOAH, that was WEIRD!

You left!

I'm back!

So... roughly 7 hours ago, I somehow got banned from my own IP from my VPS proxy. I had made a wireguard conf for my new gentoo laptop install, all was good... then all of the sudden, everything my proxy... proxies, which includes you all - goes down. I just now got everything moved to another VPS and turned the switch back on. No issues here.

My main target of potential fuckery here is Crowdsec. I liked its ability to sniff out bad traffic, though... I'm going to have to find a solution.

As-is, nothing can connect to b0nfire.xyz/social from my home IP to the old VPS, and there's not much rhyme or reason as to why. Making a new wireguard config wouldn't have bombed every other config. My phone still worked okay.

No idea, what a huge waste of time. I wish I knew what set it off. Thank Tux for restic.

Everything's moved sans one prosody bug where Dino won't find the server even though every other XMPP client has zero issues, other than that, everything is back up.
