A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

It’s either a crowler or vulnerability scanner, and may be scanning by IP address. I don’t think you configured anything wrong.
You may want to add some form of captcha or user agent based filter to get rid of it. Good news is that it’s not necessarily something to worry about.
I’d avoid IP based blocking. It’s only temporarily effective.
