       We are currently suffering from a network-level DDoS attack. Or maybe just a single actor. Anyway, our downlink is jammed.

       @Codeberg It's a sick, sad world where folks want to attack an entity like Codeberg.It's also a reminder how vulnerable any single instance service is. I was just thinking, how neat it'd be if the whole thing could be federated, but of course somebody already dreamed this up already, so it's at least a work in progress: https://forgejo.org/2023-01-10-answering-forgejo-federation-questions/ Herd immunity really is a thing...

       @Codeberg Is there any chance to create some kind of #Fediverse-like structure that is more robust against this kind of attacks because the infrastructure is distributed and there is no single point you can attack?

       @thoralf https://forgejo.org/, die Basis von Codeberg, arbeitet an Föderation. Wie sehr/ob das gegen so was hilft? Viele (große) zukünftige Forge-Instanzen vollzuspammen ist auch nicht so komplex. Bissl Sand im Getriebe wäre es sicher; Last und Verantwortung liegt dann natürlich auch verteilt bei den Instanzbetreibern.Also ich bin voll für (mehr) Föderation in dem Bereich. Ob das das aktuelle Problem deutlich geringer gemacht hätte? 🤷

       @silverfish Well, using cloudflare would kinda mean giving up on all our ideals:- no big corporate services, everything under our control- privacy by default, but Cloudflare likes to decrypt traffic in the middle- no proprietary dependencies, everything runs using free/libre softwareHowever, we have currently used DDoS mitigation from a smaller provider that does not do man in the middle sniffing, so we only had to sacrifice partially using non-free software for a while. ~f

       We have finally reached a somewhat stable level of operation. In the past hours, we managed to partially restore service, but mostly managed to do so only for a subset of our users (due to DNS propagation delays and IPv6 vs IPv4 connectivity differences).Currentely, Codeberg is available for all the situations we monitor for, and we expect that most connectivity issues will be resolved soon after all DNS caches clear.

       We appreciate all the love and support we receive from you, thank you so much.However, the sad story is, that this day was a massive disruption for most people who develop software on a serious level on Codeberg, from large Free/libre software projects to companies and freelancers, and we are sorry about this.We acknowledge if this makes you want to move elsewhere, but we're of course happy about everyone who can stay ❤️.

       Bad news: DDoS has followed to the new location.Good news: There, we have at least basic DDoS protection.Bad news: The server is still unreachable.We have received first numbers. The DDoS is apparently about 11Gbit/s over UDP traffic currently.

       We were still struggling with email delivery from Forgejo. It looks like some queues are corrupted and restoring them is very hard. Most queued messages are spam or registration emails with already expired tokens. Finally, we made the decision to reset the queue and will do that in a few minutes.We are using the opportunity to switch the queues to #redict / #redis, which was a planned project anyway (a requirement for clustering our Forgejo to multiple instances).

       @Codeberg I hope that works and that you go through this and come out stronger. You can also look at Deflect (https://deflect.ca/). I have direct contact, they're willing to help if you ping them.@silverfish

       @zeh Thank you for the offer, and the service sounds really interesting as an alternative to Cloudflare, especially for smaller-scale websites.Unfortunately, having a third-party decrypt traffic to Codeberg is currently a no-go and it looks like their service mostly relies on that.However, we are receiving some help setting up network-level DDoS protection and more is in preparation, so we're confident we'll find an alternative soon.@silverfish
