PodcastIndex.org started using a Proof-of-Work JavaScript challenge whose results are sent as `X-Pow-*` request headers. Although it is technically possible to re-implement the PoW challenge in Python, it's likely impossible to maintain because - the actual Proof of Concept logic might change very often - the whole idea of the Proof of Work challenge is to use a "big" amount of resources (about 1s on my PC); so executing the challenge would almost block all other work on the SearXNG instance At first glance, the challenge looks very similar to what Anubis does, because it also uses SHA256 hashes.
