@amolith not sure if you know, but the wallabag instance you host is currently down.
Just wanted to make you aware (if you weren't already aware of it being down).
Cloudflare is used on so many websites. A while ago I took the time to take my website off of Cloudflare and I have written about the reasons why at https://gregoryhammond.ca/blog/stop-using-cloudflare/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=socialMedia&utm_campaign=post
@nathan if I put out a poll, can you see who has voted for what poll option, since you are the instance admin (even if someone who voted isn't a user of this instance?)
Just trying to get my head around what a mastodon instance admin can, or can not see.

In reality, Hacktoberfest is a corporate-sponsored distributed denial of service attack against the open source maintainer community.
"In that moment I realized what I value – the permanence of my published information – is the opposite of what they value – the impermanent ephemerality of sharing moments from their lives."
"What saddens me is how we lost the battle of publishing to the commercial platforms, in large part because we trapped ourselves in an echo chamber: the anachronism that is the blogosphere."
