Sounds pretty suspicious to me.

Good to hear, saw the cloudflare error most of the day today and was worried because several small instances were being hit. Would it make sense to enable captcha and email verification to the signup process so you don't get hit by more bots?

Seems like some actors would like to slowly cultivate bot accounts on smaller instances that fly under the radard of bigger ones

We’ve got some headroom on this instance. I’m currently using about 7% of the available resources.

Though tuning lemmy isn’t easy. But I’m working on it. (I want federation to be faster because posting content takes a while now).
