I updated my MinIO instance yesterday only to find that many features have been removed (such as SSO). Of course, this is a move to force users to pay for a license.

I will wait it out to see if a fork happens so I can switch to that. If not, then I’ll switch to Garage.

Ogrim is influenced by ALTCHA. Taking a quick glance, Anubis is a similar solution with some differences of solving the same problem:

• Anubis sits between the target service and the reverse proxy, while Ogrim sits behind the target service.
• One Anubis instance is needed per service, while a single Ogrim instance can be used for multiple services.
• The target service does not need integration with Anubis. On the other hand, Ogrim and its services must be integrated to work.
• Anubis will block search engine indexers, affecting the SEO of the target service. This is not the case with Ogrim.

I’m currently working on a minimal spam protection system that uses a proof-of-work mechanism.
