How can I attract more of these bots to my server? I want to test my Apache bad bot blocker. It uses basic header fingerprinting and h2 support to filter them. I get less than 5000 hits on an average day, and want a lot more.
Point a domain at your IP, use letsencrypt, post your domain on Reddit, github, x, etc. The bots will find you.
Thanks for the github suggestion; I'll add a repo for the bot blocker Apache config, and include the above server URL that I'm using to test the blocker.
