/user/magnora7 can you try Immunify360 instead of CF ? It works works better on some sites I visit. I dont know about pricing though.

If the problem is just spam, can you protect the "write side" with CF but remove CF for the "read side" example by using a different subdomain for the writes "write.saidit.net" and protect it with CF all while keeping the root "saidit.net" without CF?

It would at least allow unlimited browsing without captcha. Just captcha for posting/replying.

u/Magnora7 u/Zapped
Can we have a post discussing this problem pinned somewhere so that we can have accretive dialogue for iterative plan-do-check-act (PDCA) cycles to solve this, rather than endless ephemeral chatter but no resolution?

 
Edit - May 2, 2024:
My SaidIt account has been locked.
Please note that I am not associated with 'Edward' nor the spammers trying to destroy SaidIt.
I am here purely to discuss solutions - that's it, that's all I am for.
My proposals to date for SaidIt re: the spam bots do not involve web development, but to quarantine them, to free up and more efficiently use limited Mod resources, including both your time.
Having said that, I am fine if SaidIt continues as is without any changes on the spam bot issue - it is your call to make.
I just want a place to say my truth. Afterall, SaidIt, is a place to 'say your truth', is it not?

The solution is the current state. There will be no changes as what we have is the best we can do without investing a lot more time, and I'm not willing to change the code anymore because I don't want to break our existing systems. Stop asking me about it please, it's not going to change.
