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 are you allowed to discuss the nature of the attack (e.g., the client IPs, whether a person or group is suspected, other possibly relevant info)?

@kkeller maybe @Gargron can share something more information without risk 2 months later?

In case there was already something written about it which I didn't find please point me in the right Direktion with a friendly #rtfm ;-)
