I use cloudflare but China traffic was just all bots/illegitimate traffic and a crazy amount compared to everyone else and excessive rate of requests per second. Hope you are well by the way.

No I mean I cant really justify spending more each month. Already costs like $40 a month to run.

Unsubscribe wait a few minutes and resub to the community after. Its a lemmy thing that sometimes happens.

Main issue at the moment is server performance and its not viable or cost effective to add more resources.

This could be a cool song title: ‘And the post said plutonium pucks, could taste like orange crush’.

I will post some images of stats sometime soon as it seems alright now - thanks.

I will never understand the economics of MAGA and how they interpret data. Its always totally illogical.

I sent an order for a new server spec changes as follows:

6 CPU cores -----> 12 cores 16GB RAM -----> 48GB RAM 400GB disk -----> 500 GB disk CPU speed ~ 2200Mhz - ? will update later when I know

Not server admins job to police speech. Mods of communities can decide their rules. Please contact your communities mods and request ban and let them follow their rules. Uninterested in local communities drama. Please dont tag me again.

Reach out to your mods who can run it up the chain. I run the backend of the server and talk to other admins, not random netizens. They deleted the evidence so they have to provide it if there is a bigger problem.

Edit: Evidence was provided by an admin and user was banned subsequently due to evidence review and found to be egregious.

Someone should make a change petition to rename it gulf of the Epstein files and see if it gets enough signatures

Thanks for making me aware.

I always wondered why there are weapons and health packs lying around in unexplored caves.

Sorry I was busy doing it as you were posting. Seems to have worked.

We are back on 0.19.11

I took a look and its quite complicated to install requiring a very complex kubernates clustwr. Unclear why it is so disparate when something like nextcloud can be single containerised. I feel like this could be simplified for deployment.

Pleasure. Give voyager a try. The programmer is really good (better than the lemmy devs) so its pretty optimised.

There is a lot of caching and memory management to mask performance so things that are refreshed a lot are quicker than less used processes. I try my best but a unique search query will always be the slowest kind of thing you can do.

Problem I have seen is some lemmy servers spend a lot each month - eg 100-300 per month on hosting - and while obviously things are faster, when donations dry up then they get shut down. This is disruptive to users. This server is fully paid easily by me each month so this is not a danger. Is that better? Maybe, depends on your outlook. Stability vs performance. Maybe one day we will be big enough to upgrade. For now this is working.
