You should change the public IP of the server if you haven't already

Do you run a reverse proxy infront? Eg. nginx is pretty performant at dropping unwanted traffic.

What solution were you using before Cloudflare?

How does cloudflare work? Do you install the private SSL certificate there and so cloudflare can see all traffic, including passwords, in plain text or is the path from browser through to your server still encrypted?

Lmaooo Cloudflare is in the comments downvoting criticism

now I'm convinced that that cunt spez paid those brats to sabotage us

It's been feeling sluggish all day long as well. I've been trying to post from my phone and PC, and it seems it's really slow from time to time.

Any news? I'm still seeing empty pages sometimes (db errors I think), s6 wonder if the kiddies are somehow getting through despite cloudflare.

Thank you for the update!

So many hackers targeting lemmy huh.

Obviously cloudflares ddosing lemmy just to get some extra money
