Here’s how stupid me got his bot banned from Bsky:

• I accidentally commited a debug raise that caused my script to exit with error
• The systemd unit running the script was configured with Restart=always, because I usually just copy these configs :P
• Turns out, systemd restarts services really fast on failed status

On the plus side Bsky’s API errors are pretty informative about what went wrong and when the ban will be lifted. Unfortunately because of that stupid raise I lost the logs of why the first failures (before the ban) happened :/

Moral?
