Implementing this shouldn't have any downsides, even if it doesn't prove to be very effective, so I have added the header to all requests. Thanks for the suggestion.
Yes to all three. Regression of the political climate in the US makes me uneasy about operating services from there (even if it has been via an EU-based company up to this point). EU law also provides strong privacy protections against US overreach via apparatus such as the CLOUD Act and FISA 702, which can potentially allow US federal agencies to compel cloud service providers there to hand over any and all data they request - without any disclosure to us or you. We have been able to secure a more favourable deal on a root server in Germany, so there is some economic motivation.
We're operating out of Australia. Hosting our data in Europe will provide additional privacy protections to users given that US-based companies can be compelled to provide hosted data to government agencies via a number of mass surveillance measures (CLOUD Act, FISA 702, etc.) without any disclosure.
That said, Lemmy is inherently an open platform and users should operate on the assumption that their activity is public.
Won't somebody think of the Eloi?
You're right, I was thinking about 32-bit timestamps. Definitely not an issue for 64-bits.
Won't switching from an unsigned 64-bit integer to a signed one of the same size effectively halve how far into the future they can handle dates, exhausting it in 2038?
The hyprland issues I'm aware of, but what's the issue with suckless?
Yeah, same story - the few I looked at looked like they were from consumer ISPs. We had ~7m requests from Brazil, ~900k from Argentina, and a little less from Ecuador, Colombia and Russia.
We were getting DDoS'd by a bunch of South American IPs (mostly Brazilian) from maybe 18 hours ago.
We had this issue on and off for a few weeks at least, causing massive postgres CPU spikes. I ended up blocking large page params with an nginx regex.
