I set up an SSH honeypot, and the internet is a scary place

I've been playing around with networking in recent months, including setting up my own OPNsense box and deploying Proxmox on a few machines. I've been loving it, and from a security enthusiast's point of view, some of the data that I could see in OPNsense was very interesting. Through tools like CrowdSec, I could see automated port scanners getting blocked, and it made me take a closer look at home networking and security in general. That's why I set up an SSH honeypot, to try and catch a glimpse of what these people do when they gain access to a system, and the results were pretty scary.
