i'm changing my arrangement right now, found a VPS host in romania that takes LN payments... i'll be running my wireguard vpn through it, as well as my NIP-05.

there is some serious security problems arising with internet protocols these days with so much aggressive hacking going on.

hopefully there will be no problem, i'll drop a message on this thread later if there is a problem.

thanks :D

thanks! sounds good, thanks for the helpful feedback!

yeah, i'm using a different VPN IP address now and not seeing any problems with alby.

i didn't try to diagnose it any closer, but i didn't notice that my connection changed to different ip addresses. but maybe it did. if this is the case, than i can see how you wind up with banning a whole bank of addresses on an ongoing basis.

there should be a captcha, in that case, as DoS attacks are not going to be able to solve those. or at least an actual error message on my end that informs me that teh ip address has been recently (how recently) sending dodgy traffic.

my new VPN is based on a static IP address so it should be sorted now.

it didn't even cost much more but it does require a little work to set it up.
