I implemented the headers today, so version 26.2.1 should hopefully do this correctly now.
I could only really test it in my deployment, so feel free to let me know if you have any issues!
It works! I discovered way too late that lemmy was rate limiting traffic from mlmym, because it wasnt part of my nginx config. It was lemmy itself that was doing rate limiting since all requests came from the same docker ip.
But forwarding the real ip headers fixed that, so very good. Huge thanks!
Cool. :) I think that will be a very useful feature for a lot of Lemmy admins.
Will play around with it later...!
