I know there was a ddos attack a while back, but it would be nice to access and be able to log in to this site again using Tails/Tor without giving location away. Using a VPN after Tor on Tails is a security risk and is difficult to figure out how to install on Tails for most people. Beginning with it’s creation and right up to the attack, Tor exit nodes weren’t blocked. Now they still are. Opening it up again might increase the userbase. Using sites like proxysite.com via Tor only works to read posts here about 1 out of 10 attempts and never allows log ins here.
Perhaps they could provide an
.onion
site.The site is still being attacked. Biggest issue is the lemmy-ui crashing under the load, the server itself could just about handle it. I’ve talked to Digilol who I’ll likely hire to move town to a new server and set up proper .onion support but the current server is still pre-paid for 200 more days and even after the move it’s still possible that the lemmy-ui would go down anyways :/
Did you try to setup caching? That could reduce server load a lot.
Is this on by default after v1.5.0?
If you install with ansible it should be included by default. You can check if your nginx config contains the cache lines. There is also a line you can uncomment to see the cache status with each request.

I’ll have a look, thank you!
Have you considered trying another frontend instead of lemmy-ui?
I’ve looked into alexandrite and photon before but to be honest, the install is quite messy since I didn’t really know what I was doing back then. Makes it pretty hard to figure out how to properly set these up and I’d rather start over on a new server.
Tone gays and the Asian hat man on the popular bitcoin YouTube news show kept on saying that as bitcoin gets bigger it will just be cheaper for cuntcoiners to attack other coins. This is probably what’s happening. Total spastics selling future prosperity for their mad gains too afraid to pay to get into the morally correct chain. Tone vays is the worst he kept on saying he bought crypto anon. They know and just riding this shit. Good thing nobody is imune to cancer or being poisoned.
