[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

[JimmXinu]

We don't know what constitutes 'too many', 'too quickly', or how long it takes to cool down--I would assume day(s), not just hours.

It's also possible it's someone else 'nearby' in your network. Some people have had success rebooting routers to get new outside facing IP addresses or using VPNs.

I don't recall if FFF's Browser Cache feature works with AO3 or not.

And worst case, you can always download an epub or other ebook format from AO3, unlike a lot of other sites.

Depending on your ISP, it's posisble that you got an IP address previously used by a bad actor. Also depending on your ISP, unplugging your modem for a bit and then reconnecting might get you a new one and help.

Some users did have some success with the cache, but that was when the site was being DDoS'd.

attempt to use flareslolver with modifications in personal.ini

use_flaresolverr_proxy:true
#run via docker desktop using docker run -d --name=flaresolverr -p 8191:8191 -e LOG_LEVEL=info flaresolverr/flaresolverr:latest
results in flaresolverr seeing icoming request, saying version_main cannot be converted to an integer and "challenge not detected"

browser doesn't see any challenges on ficbook.net

usign vpn doesn't help (same set of errors as before)
any advice would be anticipated.

starting flaresolver as docker run -d --name=flaresolverr -p 8191:8191 -e LOG_LEVEL=debug -e LOG_HTML=true flaresolverr/flaresolverr:latest
and connecting to containter for logs shows ficbook's html IS being here


using flaresloverr with fanfiction.net via fanficfare detects challenge correctly
