@wimpy there are not this many instances out there a website ought to support... 30k visits, let's say..

@wimpy its 2024 and they're moaning about getting slasdotted ?

and its happening even though they already use a CDN ?

Sounds like a them problem.

@wimpy It also does not speak well of their technical acumen if they don't realise that.

Can you imagine for a moment (and yes, I perfectly understand how unlikely it is on a non-federated social network) if they'd put out an article like that whinging about (pre-space karen) twitter ?

@FXBOY4EVA @wimpy Slashdotting needs a user on the other side to generate traffic. This is talking about servers making requests regardless of whether anyone looked at the post or not.

@wimpy He got a lot of backlash from lashing out the other day about Ubuntu and I think this is his weak-minded retort
