On Discord, you have access to updates much earlier than here.
1. Support for 1.21.11.

2. A new unique type of captcha has been implemented - Block Captcha!
This captcha renders images in three-dimensional space using blocks as pixels.
The captcha supports most colors and is rendered using the same principle as other captchas, through render layers.
Demonstration:

3. Improved the logic of teleportation and spawning of the player on the filter, it should now be more correct.
4. Enabled by default netty adative allocator.

6. Added the ability to enforce secure profile for proxied player.
7. Added the ability to specify custom image sources for pick-captcha.
8. The Ninja API has been removed from pick-captcha image sources because it became a paid service and did not actually generate unique images.
9. Motd is now not sent if motd manager has not yet been loaded.

Fixes:
1. Fixed some broken arguments in the /ab report command.

9. Fixed the possibility of setting a negative throttle limit, which led to the connection being constantly closed.
