Pleroma isn't the only social media platform on the "Fediverse"; other platforms also exist and can talk to each other, and many also send requests as they generate link previews. I might add their user-agents later, but this PR as it is rn should be mergeable.
force-pushed tabs-to-spaces. ugh.
Looks great, thanks 👍🏻
Grepped around my access logs, found 9 new bots/crawlers.
The most useful edition is Pleroma. Pleroma is server software for federated social media, like Mastodon; when users submit links, it generates a link preview using the Open Graph protocol. When other Pleroma instances receive statuses, they too generate link previews. This creates a lot of requests, but it's quite benign and relatively low-volume. I am a user.
Also added Mozilla's HTTP Observatory, which is used to check HTTP headers and TLS configurations for best practices. It's in a category similar to SSL Labs. I am a user.
I'm not too familiar with the other 7, but their user-agents and a quick look-up revealed them to be bots.
