    At least for this time, it appears some child wrote a bad crawling bot, heavily hammering the instance with requests for posts, comments and stuff - and i think they knew as they hide behind a vpn. For now things should be better as i did some short term measures and i am trying to better prevent such actions better… hoping for the best.

    Its people like this who should donate lol.

    I kinda lost track on my Anubis deployments, it appears here i only have a useragent blacklist so its time to give it prio for lemmy as well. However i worry whether that is sufficient.

    (while things are much healthier again, i acknowledge that at least in the webui, its not as fast as it should be)




  • oh, sometimes lemmy-ui needs a restart, usually the first 504 from the monitoring would be the signal for me but i didn’t notice this in a while - i was actually just wondering about it. will check on it asap, matrix is unrelated

    edit: restarted. and indeed here and there i am already deploying anubises - just not too happy to seemingly have to do one instance per domain - even if i can update them using watchtower and have them share a configuration file… even lost track a little about where i have put them already lol
