Migration to nostr would be good, but the current state of it isn’t perfect and is not ready to use with communities and use it like we are using EH rn.

The cause of the ddos might actually be not powerful enough hardware because EH is hosted on linode which offers 40gbps incoming traffic on all their servers. No matter dedicated or shared.

I don’t support the usage of Cloudflare. We give too much control over all the data to it. It also doesn’t protect agains not powerful enough hardware.

Totally agree. Should be more like a backup right now. It’s probably atleast a year away maybe two from being a decent competitor. It will happen though.

Fair enough.

  I suggest we do a crowd funding to upgrade the server plan which in my opinion would solve the issue at least for a bit.
