Nice, but the bots may not understand the joke.
And not only that but they will tag the domain with ”there is something here”, and maybe some day someone will take a closer look and see if you are all up-to-date or would there maybe be a way in. So better to just drop everything and maybe also ban the IP if they happen to try poke some commonly scanned things (like /wp-admin, /git, port 22 etc.) GoAccess is a pretty nice tool to show you what they are after.
Yeah that's a good point. The joke is mostly for my own enjoyment or any random user who happens to forget the
jellyfin.subdomain.I have had a few hits to /wp-admin, but cloudflare actually blocks those for me (I don't use a tunnel but I do use them for the domain name which helps a bit). I might just shut down the main page then.
