User-Agent header for AP requests (community.nodebb.org)

@[email protected] I noticed in the latest release notes for Fedify that it now sends a user agent for AP requests.

Was there a specific reason that this was implemented? I noticed that GoToSocial sometimes rejects my requests/activities, and I am assuming this has to do with the User-Agent header (or lack thereof) that I am sending. GtS seems to think I'm a bot, so I thought perhaps you ran into something similar?

@julian @[email protected] @[email protected] yeah, it helps with federation for instances sitting behind like Cloudflare and similar.
