Hi guys,

Another ddos attack so site was slow/unavailable for a while.

I disabled the alternative user interfaces since they are used in the attacks. Will think of some better long term solutions. ๐ŸฅŠ ๐Ÿ˜„

Sadly it's been my experience that once this crap starts it doesn't stop and engaging some kind of protection upstream from the host eventually becomes necessary. I've used Cloudflare's DDoS protection and / or WAF for this in the past but I know that not everybody wants to work with them.

Yeah I guess it may be necessary...
