I had it running in front of my Matrix server. With the default configuration it gave a lot of false positives, leaving friends out of the server. Also, most of my users use VPNs regularly, so geo-blocking was a hassle too. I tuned it a bit, but kept giving me headaches, so I ended up disabling it. I’ll spend more time tuning it someday.
I don't think geoblocking would be a great fit for Matrix, since you'd be contacted by servers from all over the world. It's more suitable for something like a static website
Yeah, I keep getting myself blocked because of something I'm hosting is giving a lot of false positives. I suppose I'll have to dig into it at some point. For now I just whitelist the IPs I use.
Fine tuning is a great thing to keep in mind, just like a bloated pihole lots of false positives and over looked spots.
