@aaronjschaffer Huh... it looks like it's the Mastodon effect, where sending out a link causes thousands of Mastodon servers to all hit /.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:simon@simonwillison.net at the same time - but I've survived these storms just fine in the past, not sure why it's hurting the site today
@simon Ah gotcha! I love a little suspense, I'll check again later!
