mastodon.social, mastodon.online and joinmastodon.org were hit by a DDoS yesterday, thankfully joinmastodon.org was already behind Fastly so it didn't have any impact on it. We've now moved mastodon.online behind Fastly and will do the same with mastodon.social soon.
@Gargron Were there any demands made? Any logical reason for it? Or just a bunch of script kiddies screwing around for the heck of it? Did Elon discover LOIC/HOIC? 😛
