How much effort would it be for them to create a new one and do it again?

Minimal, but it is the domain that gets blocked so the attacker would still need to purchase a new domain.

Oh, my bad! Also congratulations.

One of our Admins still moderates their Reddit community, but we are also in regular contact with the other mods who chose to stay behind.

StarTrek.website typically sees 1-2 (approved) registrations per day. We have 12 approved in the past 48 hours.

I don’t want to be a mod here anymore 😭

Should be fixed now. Try it again (clear your cache first).

Ugh thanks for letting me know, does it happen every time you click it? And would you say the problem has been less frequent overall?

I think I might have fixed it, let me know if you encounter it again.

Any slowness should be gone by now, I haven’t seen the JSON thing happen to me yet, but I’ll look into it. Next time it happens to you can you DM me a screenshot?

Things may be uh- crispy for a few hours while we get re-Federated and all the other instances whallop us with traffic. It should pass within a day.

I’ve also just put up an announcement in /c/Quark’s

OP- you are not on StarTrek.website. You’re on feddit.de. When you scroll /c/Risa you are scrolling a “copy” on feddit.de.

I assure you we are fully functional.

EDIT: FWIW I checked /c/Risa on feddit.de and thumbnails loaded fine …maybe try clearing your browser cache?

We’ve been targeted too by what’s probably a couple of script kiddies trying to brute force their way into our server. Not exactly a DDOS but a similar effect. Just had to remodulate the shields a few times.

Stories like this make me very happy to hear. When I heard the /r/StarTrek and Daystrom mods talking about joining Lemmy I’d thought bringing their reputation for positivity and tolerance to a Trek-themed instance could provide a familiar and comfortable jumping-off point for users unsure about the broader Fediverse.
