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.
All is looking good now.
For a couple of hours that I have been monitoring the situation and can't find any problems.
Hopefully the attack has been resolved but please do let me know if you notice any problems on your end.
Again, sorry to everyone on servers that were impact.
I will continue to work to make these kind of attacks less of a problem in the future but it's a hard problem to solve and it will take time.
Thanks 🐘
Thank you, Masto Host!
