Subject: Changes due to bot abuse
From: "Peter Sanchez" <peter@netlandish.com>

While LinkTaco is a young project the bots seemed to have picked us up.=20
We've seen a huge rise in scraping bot traffic. Not yet enough to
warrant any sort of middle layer protection (ie, OVO or Cloudfare, which
I'd hate to have to do) but enough to where it can cause issues or
slowness on the site.
To help mitigate I pushed a small change[0] today that requires accounts
to be logged in to view public bookmark, /recent, or /popular pages
while using filter combos of more than 2 tags.
Hopefully this helps decrease the scraper traffic and doesn't affect any
users or workflows. Please let me know if there are any issues or
concerns.
Thanks,
Peter
