Hi guys,

Im doing some saturday testing for old.lemmy.today again.

Currently login is required for old.lemmy.today to read posts there. If you are already logged in, you wont notice any difference.

The reason im experimenting is because bots are hammering it, and I wanted to get some statistics of load if I simply dont allow anonymous scraping. Some bots are passing Anubis and scraping content.

So just log in if you havent and it will work just as before.

Thank you!

Yep, I experienced the same thing. I have total faith that @mrmanager@lemmy.today will fix it though!

@tal@lemmy.today @PapaSkwat@lemmy.today This should be fixed now. It was caused by incorrect caching of the posts. :)
