Why it crawls your site
The bot crawls specific URLs only when triggered by a Fedica user who intends to share content or schedule a post. It does not perform broad, indiscriminate indexing of the web; instead, it focuses on fetching the necessary data to populate social media cards and feed updates. Website owners can verify the bot by checking the User-Agent string 'Fedicabot' and confirming that the requests originate from Fedica's infrastructure.
Block or allow Fedicabot
