You might’ve noticed no posts by the bot today. The log did record an error and it seems that because lemmy.world has had no choice to go behind cloudflare until the script kiddies get bored with their ddos attack on the database, the bot isn’t making it past the cloudflare challenge, which is not surprising.

I’ll leave it up and running and hopefully .world can ease back as and when the ddos attacks retreat. Hopefully at that point the bot will resume normal activity.
