How are you running AnythingLLM?

Not listed

What happened?

Greetings!

As issue name says, site anythingllm.com is not available from Russia, instant block from cloudflare. No captcha.

Tried to access the website from different ISP. Looks like geo-block.

Is this misconfiguration, or conscious choice?

Are there known steps to reproduce?

Steps to reproduce: try accessing anythingllm.com with Russian IP address.

sanctions don't require you to block access to website, only prohibit finance operations. These are only your actions and initiative, because you are racists
