Attack is still ongoing, we've blocked 7.34 million fraudulent connection attempts so far. That's about 10x our previous record for a single attack... holy moly. Still not taking our servers down though, and we don't even our defenses turned up all the way! A lot of wasted resources on their part

Slightly conspiratorial, but last time reddit had a ban wave, they did this to voat when everyone migrated and it killed any attempt to make voat viable. This is deliberate to keep other social media from taking root.

I remember that happening to Voat. It doesn't surprise me that it's happening here. When you look over at Reddit that place is slowly dying. Today was the first day in weeks that I woke up to new shit on the front page. They keep getting more and more extreme with their rules and they keep running people off. I honestly feel like what they're doing is running off the older redditors. When you think about it everything they're pushing on reddit is the shit they've been pushing since this latest generation. Everyone gets a trophy, free healthcare, free college, socialism, socialism, socialism. I've noticed over the years that reddit has become more socialist over the years, to the point where they took Tencent money and now delete just about all anti-China posts. Reddit should change its logo to the Red Star.

They want to indoctrinate children and teenagers into their trans cult, and become the next P0rnhub. I know, I sound like a lunatic, but the more I read about the whole phenomenon the more I think there's truth to it.

Socialism? Reddit is literally neoliberalism. Why hasn't /r/neocon been banned there. It's all about keeping the establishment as it is.

This is exactly what happened to voat, First it was ddos'ed to oblivion for months on end.

Then burner accounts started posting CP to small subreddits and informing authorities / webhosts to get them kicked off of hosting companies.

Then honeytrap links to discord/office365 auth pages designed to try to dox voat members.

Then they placed voat under the antisemitism section of wikipedia for like a year.

All of this will be coming to seddit in the coming months/years @magnora7 please prepare for this shit in advance the best you can !
