yeah, probably =)
a homelab (most probably mostly isolated from the internet, at leats for incoming connections) is just a very different situation to a publicly reachable service used by hundreds of thousands of people + bots
(and if we're being honest, AI crawler bots are a PITA for everyone's uptimes, that crap is a DDOS on the whole internet. of course GH/MS deserves this for being part of the problem, but it still adds to their load)
