Yesterday FreeFlarum suffered another DDoS attack. Over 2 milion requests within a few minutes from 5K+ IPs. I implemented an emergency filter that would blacklist aggressive sources, but it may have been too strict and ended up blocking regular visitors.
My apologies for that. All blocks have been lifted. Also, I have adjusted the DDoS filters so next time they will be more accurate.
PS I am absolutely baffled as to why someone would want to damage FreeFlarum. Probably a bored teenager âšī¸
