@kfitz@hcommons.social getting hammered here for months. Old backyard hosted forum on a landline where people talked a little about AI for _a game_ *YEARS AGO*. Sent HTTP 503 for ~4 weeks. Now banning everything that does not accept a cookie. Sucks, I know, but works for most REAL people. They do not care. It is even getting worse. All requests are from unique IPs so the usual throttling does not work. I don't know what to do any more. Very close to giving up and shutting down. Internet seems to be over.
