We use Cloudflare for edge firewall rules to avoid spam / AI traffic clogging up bandwidth so I took the shortest route to enable a quick check to stop bots / scrapers. I have been considering removing the Cloudflare challenge page in favor of Anubis, just haven’t had the time to set it up T~T
The grammar there isn’t incorrect at all. It’s still perfectly valid grammar. It’s just longer and more circuitous than needed, and it sets a weird formal/aristocratic/patronizing tone.
To me it just reads as someone whose native language would use the present-progressive tense for this kind of statement.
True, it’s not incorrect grammar in English. It just sounds off because we would typically use the infinitive form to discuss a need like this. That’s not necessarily the case in every language though.

Why CloudFlare instead of Anubis?

That’s fair. Thanks for taking the time to respond ❤️
Just checked the docs again and there’s info for using traefik! https://anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/environments/traefik I think this has now become a fairly easy to swap weekend task :3
Yayay!! 😻
I’ll have to check my setup against what’s current. I set up Anubis way before they had added traefik documentation.

Formal and patronizing is usually the tone of the owner class. Fits them.
