@dealloc dealloc commented Apr 10, 2024

currently rate limits are (once again) applied globally since the client IP address (which is used as the rate limit bucket) doesn't seem to be correctly set by the forwarded headers middleware.

tests indicate this is because it processes right to left, whereas Fly places the eventual client IP on the left.
so basically:
<client-ip>,<proxy-1>,<proxy-2> etc, and the app would only process <proxy-2> and never <client-ip> essentially enforcing a global rate limit per proxy region

this PR ensures that proxies are correctly processed, which in turn should fix the rate limit

Looks good, simple implementation, but simple sometimes works best. Approved.
