There is currently a DDoS attack going on in the Masto.host infrastructure.

Some instances are affected. I am investigating and will report once I know more.

The attack continues and traffic is being filtered, so it might be slower than usual.

Still, from my testing 99,9% of instances hosted are working and over 50% are not being affected at all.

I will continue to monitor and update with more information.

BTW: you can read what a DDoS (Denial-of-service) attack is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack

After a combination of efforts, things are looking much better now.

There should be little to no impact now.

I will continue to monitor the situation.
