Hell nah this is a Linux community, it’s always the right place

I’m curious; wouldn’t tail refuse to open /dev/zero since it can’t fseek in it ?

There’s a push towards WebAssembly. Officially it’s not supported yet, but most browsers can handle it. I don’t know how mature the project is though.

But yeah, essentially everything on the web is JS.

From what I understand, Cloudflare can block some DDoS attacks, but not all of them.

The attacks on Lemmy have to do with poorly optimized SQL requests; these are requests that shouldn’t take long to execute, but do due to some oversight. By spamming these requests, the attackers can bring Lemmy on it’s knees.

Actually, wouldn’t this attack better be categorized as a DoS attack ? What’s so distributed about it ?
