mastodon.social, mastodon.online and joinmastodon.org were hit by a DDoS yesterday, thankfully joinmastodon.org was already behind Fastly so it didn't have any impact on it. We've now moved mastodon.online behind Fastly and will do the same with mastodon.social soon.

@Gargron 🤷🏻‍♀️ The “good” news of this attack is that it shows that Mastodon seems already important enough to spend time and energy for attacking it.

Soon Twitter will be forgotten and people start to realize that Mastodon 🥰 will be a much better and relaxed alternative

@Gargron looks like two nights in a row. I'm sorry it is happening but I'm not going anywhere. They can slow the system down but they can't win back the people they lost

@Gargron weird how these DDoS attacks are suddenly happening, makes you wonder just how scared the traditional socials that rely on stealing your data really are.

@Gargron Not sure if you get any support from Fastly and/or are already aware of it but they offer support for OSS communities via fastly.com/fast-forward which may be worth a look if you've not already.

@Gargron Why can't I see all interactions under toots? When I open toot in a non-logged in browser I see more boosts added to favorites and comments.

@Gargron
It appears not to have been a DDOS as much as someone using DO to set up some badly configured instances. Reported it to them and it should have gone away sometime after 9 am yesterday.
Hope that helped!
