Thanks a lot for all the work you folks are doing to keep this instance up.
If you decide to use Akamai, hmu. I'm not an Alamai guru, but I do it professionally.
ty for all ur hard work β₯οΈ
Nice try, Mr. Huffman.
Yeah, first make sure it doesn't show anywhere anymore
My biggest problem with CloudFlare is that very often they don't play nicely with VPN.
Not sure if itβs related, but today on Mastodon, Iβm unable to upload photos. Also canβt see pics from other users. Profile pics are mostly greyed out too.
Yeah, this is just growing pains for any website. Get popular enough for it to be "fun" to target. Then get enough data that it's "profitable" to target. Etc. And the usual way to deal is to first use an external solution at least until it becomes too expensive due to traffic volume. Then make your own solutions for problems you can solve yourself and pay external companies for the ones you can't.
I wonder now with the semi-adversarial/semi-cooperative nature between lemmy instances, if wer'e not going to see more DDOS and other types of raids happening because a different instance has an ax to grind against yours. Say between you defederated them, or they consider your instance too big etc.
I joined July 1 for obvious reasons, I love it here.
I'm asking how many times has lemmy had to deal with these kinds of attacks prior to the "Date shall not be named"
Cause it kinda seems pretty coincidental for the amount of times I've been forced to be "offline" on this platform is gd laughable.
I thumbs up good content always.
thank you guys for your work! is it possible to disable the cloudflare analytics/telemetry aka cloudflareinsights?
Whats the motivation to DDOS? How mutch is specific malice to lemmy or lemmy.world itself and how much is genaric.
Thank you for the update!
