Finally, after 4 months, I can reach beehaw again. Was beehaw under attack? (self.support)

For the past four months beehaw has been unreachable to those of us on the Tor network. Glad to see access was finally restored. Was there an attack?

I could really use a way to periodically backup my posts to my local disk so if Tor is spontaneously blocked again I at least have my history. I’ve not found a Lemmy equivalent for Mastodon Archive.

(edit) For security, it would be a good idea to setup an onion instance. The Tor network has built-in DDoS protection for onion hosts.

Oh, if beehaw doesn't make you sign up with an email account I suppose that makes sense, I forget if it made me, it was long ago.

Yes, I'm aware there are email anonymisation services, but likely there's still a list on those sites of what is for who. Unless you used a sign up and forget account, I suppose.

Anyway, I hope your problem gets solved 🙂
