UPDATE: Captcha and Email Verfication Enabled. Potential Spam User Attack - Feddit.uk - Registered user count increasing fast
Early last week it was ~600 registered users, then last Friday ~700-800, 5 hours ago it was ~2.8k and now its 3.1k
Update: It has come to my attention that Lemmy is under a spam user registration attack. Feddit.uk is not the only instance affected.
Side note: Starting to notice some instance server load issues here. Not as snappy as it was due to the influx of new spam users.
Update 20th June: Tom has now enabled captcha and email verification on feddit.uk
Don’t forget to check the sidebar out on the feddit.uk homepage and donate to @tom@feddit.uk to assist with server upkeep and hopefully more server resource.
