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.

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 !
