Please clarify what do you mean exactly by the ISP blocking your IP. Do you mean your internet provider cut your connection, your webhost turned off the site, or your machine was blocked from accessing your own site?
The task queue shouldn't have any positive or negative impacts on blocking. It just means long-running server tasks such as exporting data happen via background CRON, rather than immediately.
I suppose it's conceivable a webhost could block you for calling long-running web requests, but I've never heard of anything like that for an occasional admin action.

- If not, please let us know how we can do better (please try and propose any bigger ideas in such a way that they are fundable and scalable).
- If so, please let others know about Composr whenever you see the opportunity or support me on Patreon.
- If my reply is too Vulcan or expressed too much in business-strategy terms, and not particularly personal, I apologise. As a company & project maintainer, time is very limited to me, so usually when I write a reply I try and make it generic advice to all readers. I'm also naturally a joined-up thinker, so I always express my thoughts in combined business and technical terms. I recognise not everyone likes that, don't let my Vulcan-thinking stop you enjoying Composr on fun personal projects.
- If my response can inspire a community tutorial, that's a great way of giving back to the project as a user.
