>I'm struggling to know how it's possible to really block something like a profiler on things like public fedi profiles.

I use several techniques, and I'm sure there are a lot more. And right, it is quite possible that I'm not blocking all of them, but it is one of my duties to try my best. What you are asking here is that I stop doing one of the duties I have as an admin.

> It's public so it really doesn't matter.

Maybe to you, but it does matter to other users that, even posting publicly, wish to remain as annonymous as posible.

> Its likely that many won't or won't even declare that they are search engines/bots

That is very true. And that's why I also block the ones I found.

> The problem is I don't have a big online presence like you might think, so things like this would help a lot.

I don't know which presence you have online. I'm sorry, but I can't help you on this one. I hope you understand.
