AI-Training Data Scrapers are constantly attacking the feddit.online instance, in the last 24 hours about 70% of all traffic here was a bot of nefarious intent.
This is a continuation of the problems experienced last weekend which were temporarily snubbed by CloudFlare filtering them out, but they always return eventually.
This is the reason many users have been complaining about poor uptime/stability.
No, I think anybody can post to this community. I just saw people complaining in some comments which means the majority of them likely didn’t read the banner explaining the whole situation.
I am unaffiliated with the owners of feddit.online
