It can't use the first entry, because each reverse proxy will append to the header, and so the first one could be anything supplied by the user. This is also why reverse proxy detection must be opted into to begin with. You can use https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojolicious::Plugin::ForwardedFor to specify how many reverse proxy levels you are deploying behind to retrieve the correct address.
