My timezone is CET, so I get the ping on 2AM. The Lemmy container should be on UTC as I did not specify the timezone when launching the container. It is definitely not human, as the ping comes exactly on midnight UTC, or seconds away from midnight. I will turn off the Pangolin auth and investigate further this midnight. Again sorry for not providing more information, I was certain that it is a thing internal to Lemmy and I was just curious what it is
I will definitely do that, right now I can’t work with anything because the traffic gets stopped at Pangolin’s level, but I will turn off Pangolin’s auth for one night
Nothing in Lemmy’s logs, in Pangolin’s logs it’s only the lines about attempted access each midnight
I do not have my Lemmy’s link in the Bitwarden
Well it is definitely specific to Lemmy, I selfhost over 20 services and only Lemmy gets pinged on midnight. The only other service I saw doing this was Nextcloud, Nextcloud instance needs to reach itself, but for Lemmy it is a different IP, which is puzzling me
Yes, I do. It is probably a web request
Update: So it turns out I was perhaps correct with my hunch. The local IP turns out to be the proxy I set for ports 80 and 443 (it was internal Wireguard IP). Unfortunately my current setup did not allow me to catch which IP the request came from (which is a problem I have to solve later) but the lemmy-proxy container got requests for GET /.well-known/nodeinfo and GET /nodeinfo/2.1. So it is probably something checking my server, likely from the Lemmy network.
