@Gargron Are we sure it isn't just a massive rush from people abandoning #twitter?

@Gargron Might have something to do with Twitter being down and everyone and their mother trying to use Mastodon at once?

Everything is back to normal now. Yes, it was an attack, not legitimate traffic. No, we don't know who was behind it. I agree the timing with Twitter being down was unfortunate.

Fastly and Datadog who both sponsor us by providing us a free service were instrumental in analyzing and mitigating the attack. Shout out to our own team as well, glad I don't have to do this alone anymore!

@Gargron Need to work with your CDN to at least splash up a failephant when stuff like this happens. The 503 error-page otherwise has no zing.
