Yeah that's unrelated. I moved the server to a new ip address to isolate it from my personal projects. It took a while for these changes to propagate.
Good to hear, saw the cloudflare error most of the day today and was worried because several small instances were being hit. Would it make sense to enable captcha and email verification to the signup process so you don't get hit by more bots?
Seems like some actors would like to slowly cultivate bot accounts on smaller instances that fly under the radard of bigger ones
We’ve got some headroom on this instance. I’m currently using about 7% of the available resources.
Though tuning lemmy isn’t easy. But I’m working on it. (I want federation to be faster because posting content takes a while now).
Ah I see, thought it might be maintenance related.
Let me know if you ever need help with server admin stuff. I'm not an expert, but did web dev for 15 years and still comfortable enough on the old Linux CLI.
So far I’m good. But I’ll keep you on my Mind should this situation change.
Cool. Also if you need funds towards hosting costs, I can manage a small monthly contribution.
I noticed the main Irish mastodon instance uses this - looks very interesting (perhaps longer term)

I appreciate the thought but hosting this really doesn't take enough time for me to take any money for it. I'm just happy you're all here.
