100,000 requests in 11 months? That's about 12.5 requests an hour
That's hardly anything. Facebook has a bot accessing my server's robots.txt multiple times a second. (My robots.txt used to say "Facebook bot go away" but now I just respond 404 to any requests from the Facebook bot. Pretend I said that all technical and stuff, it's 2 am and I ought to go to sleep.)
That’s what I’m sayin! I make more than 12.5 requests an hour to lemmy and I’m a human I’m 90.00000000000001% sure
I wonder if I can get Facebook to give me some of that sweet, sweet cash for the inconvenience of telling them to bugger off...
Some legitimate users probably submit more requests than that
