Cloudflare has a ton of heuristics that seem useful in automating blocking of traffic spikes using many IPs and "real" user agents. Can anyone point in the direction of how to actually implement it? It feels like something that should be built in, but I can't figure out how to stop this stuff.

@ericholscher@fosstodon.org it's so weird that it's not just a button isn't it. There is a lot of hype around cloudflare that fizzles out as soon as you try to use it properly! iirc, you create rules to block (or demand captchas) for the various categories of suspiciousness.
