For the last couple of days we were offline due to a DDoS attack originating from Tor.

We are now behind cloudflare (💀) but at least we are online.

We might switch to a different CDN in the future.

thanks based admin

lol, just days after this post about coralling rebels onto cloudflare: https://monero.town/post/3622853/5036178

is there a wider attempt at stymying monero's grassroots ecosystem?

if so it seems to be mid-tier, not state-level. and it has been piecemeal, an exchange here and there, and the flood attack last month.

but the use of tor exploits is above the average schmo and as @gogr8 says someone was comitted. we must be doing something right!

wider attempt

For sure. Trocador, monerocom & haveno have also been hit. No idea why they would attack this tiny lemmy instance but I've learned a lot so I guess I should be grateful.
