The Scrapers are very active today. Would be cool if so many people would read my posts, but I can clearly see that some/body/thing scrapes my reading list, especially the author listing - for hours now.

After a long time without performances, we were recently on the road again and had the opportunity to play in the wonderful Forum in Neustadt: https://maurice-renck.de/en/notes/2025/forum-neustadt

I just wanted to quickly migrate Umami v2 to v3 … well I should have known better… Some hours later I got it up running again.

I was cutting the next episode of Server Side Stories today. Let's see who is also doing stuff like this. What is this waveform?

Today I made really good progress on my #getkirby course. Tomorrow will be a very different day as we hit the road and play a gig in Neustadt i. H.

I just released a new #komments release, which tries to reduce comment spam by LLMs (and others) using verification. If you like, you can now enable this feature. Users then have to verify their comments by email. Unverified will eventually be marked as spam or be deleted after 48h. After

I am using Todoist since 2014. They just sent an email that they are doubling the price. Because I am such an old user I can keep my old plan but don't get new features… I don't know… I mean they were relatively cheap, but …

Since tonight there is a massive increase of visitors on my site, Umami says. Everyone with MacOS on a Laptop, no special referrer, and no single entry point. For me, this looks like somebody scraping content. When an increase like this happened in the past, there was a single entry point

Ich habe im Frühjahr die erste Ausgabe des GoodInternetMagazines bestellt und sie dann eigentlich gar nicht gelesen, weil mich das Layout/Design etwas abgeschreckt hat. Aber vielleicht hat ja jemand anderes Freude daran. Wer Interesse hat, kann sich gerne bei mir melden, ich würde es dann

During the last few weeks and months, it basically became impossible to filter comment spam. The percentage of detected spam decreases, and when I sharpen the filters even more, I get false positives. One cause is, I guess, LLMs and all those easy-to-build AI automations. So, now what?

I had massive problems on my website, several plugins weren't working after I did some updates. I rolled back everything and installed them step by step, still no luck. This night my website has also moved to a new server, maybe that? And then I realized I had a typo in the kirby

Well well well, a little unplanned break for me because of #aws Time to get the records off the shelves as tidal is down too.

I added a little section to my /now page, where I list current projects and how far I think I am until I can release them. Also, a little spoiler on what I have been working on for quite some time now. #now #getkirby #course

Small update for the #getkirby #komments plugin. You can now define phrases and keywords that, when found in the comment text, will increase the spam score. Hopefully this will help you a bit more with those annoying (AI) spammers. Included in Release 3.6.0

Occasionally, when I want to feel like a real hacker, I pick the keyboard with the clicky keys and massively annoy everybody around me by typing very fast and enthusiastically.

Recently, I [wrote about](https://sociab.li/blog/2025/mastodon-starterpacks-follow-and-create-them/) how to use starter packs for Mastodon. Currently, this isn't possible natively, but it is via an external website. However, this feature may als…
