We don’t know what the problem is. DDOSs are causing one of two things. Hardware overloading or network overloading. If the problem is the first one we just donate for better hardware. If it is the second one Kapow would need to upgrade his network connection. Here I am assuming he is self hosting it.
If he is running a VPS then he would need to upgrade his VPS plan to more expensive one.
So looked into how EH is hosted and it seems like it is ran on a server by Linode. All of their plans include 40 gbps incoming traffic. Yes 40 GIGABITS PER SECOND. That is a lot. It is pretty hard for someone to generate traffic that big. It has to be someone with access to a lot of devices to generate an attack that big.
I am thinking the problem is that the hardware is being overloaded. I don’t know what EH is currently running on but it needs an upgrade.
Let’s take a trip on DMT. Welcome to the Dank Microwave Taco or DMT for short. Anything and everything goes in here. Be sure to share your experience on DMT with your friends, family and social media. @WiggleHard bans nothing and exiles nobody (Dont doxx wolfballs users, no posting of porn/nudes or foot fetish material unless it involves political scandals, no ads for sex sites or dating sites; do that on your own time, no solicitation for pyramid scams, no posting job advertisements unless from official job sites, no posts supporting pedophilia, not all love is love) also: (we cannot allow violations of the patriot act concerning how we speak, no calls for violence, suggesting you are personally harming someone ect. These things are not free speech protected by law but actually against the law and could get the website shut down.) (no spam posting, especially spam posting of what could be considered symbols of hate) examples: guy posting nazi flag 5 times in one day, guy posting “whitey is the devil over and over, im going to use my best judgement on this one rule)
Donations maybe?

I think MOB said other instances have been getting DDOS too, I wonder if they have been doing anything in response
I just realised that this is the wrong thread 😅
lol I saw but… it’s alright and we have only so much traffic so I figured the right few people would see anyway
