It's over. We're getting good at this! Probably 8 minutes of total downtime for around 3 hours of attacks.

The fact they attack only proves how worthwhile this place is.

Get prepared. As Reddit goes down the attacks will get worse. This is the only place that has wide appeal and now you can beat their DDoS too.

Great work everyone. Keep it up. Fuck Reddit.

that's some timed shit to take out US prime hours.

Yeah I agree. Also the DDOS will work best when there's the most traffic already, so that's when they'll get the most effect

Sadly, I get the "One more step" message, which I'm not going to unblock Google's Recaptcha. Ruqqus had the same issue. Wish there were an alternative to Cloudflare's Recaptcha protection.

Regardless, keep up the good fight. :)

    Yup I see on the logs about 3 hours ago we had another very brief DDOS attack, thanks for pointing that out

    DDOS attacks are a criminal offense. And I'd bet my life it's "AgainstHateSubreddits" pedophiles behind it. I think an investigation into its users and charges are warranted, especially since they own child porn.

    So you got any shit on you, sunshine?

    Because it seems to me DDoS is a start. Next they'll look to you.

    maybe the DDOS protection can continue to be improved, critique from elsewhere:

    This time the homebrew filter requires you to disable all adblocking and cookie cleaners to be let in. Don't think so.

    Thanks for the feedback, but thats... not true at all. We don't even have ads, so why would we make anyone disable adblocking. I have my adblocker on all the time. Cookies definitely should not be affected.

    stuff that blocks ads and cookies might do it in a way that also blocks the cloudflare anti-DDOS protection gateway, that's what I was assuming. Not that you guys run ads.

    They should know that this won't do much to deter users.
