@bear read requests in ActivityPub won't necessarily correlate to an increase in sidekiq jobs (unless it's to verify the reader's signatures, but even that is generally done in the request/response lifecycle)

As for a walk of your CDN, were there any user agents or IP addresses popping in the logs to indicate a crawl?

Some fediverse clients behave in varying ways (proxying requests, requesting additional data, etc), so patterns would be important here.

@thisismissem Good to know, regarding no increase in Sidekiq activity. I guess I still have a lot to learn. πŸ˜…

What I recall from that moment was that everything stood out like a spike in the CloudFront dashboards. Within a short time window it looked like every asset was touched. I remember it being hard to determine who the client was, but that it looked like one client.

@bear there are some fediverse software projects that'll try to backfill posts when they become aware of a user, perhaps it's this gone awry and is a bug instead of a bad actor?

Though, also, Jortage is gaining popularity, which is an alternative to storing all the content yourself.
