git.nixnet.services is up, but reg closed due to an ongoing attack

2mon 16d ago by lemmy.sdf.org/u/evenwicht in isitdown@infosec.pub from git.nixnet.services

The linked account is very busy.. almost 10,000 repos. Whoever the asshole is behind that attack, it’s the reason the public has lost the ability to create a new account on nixnet.

This matters in particular because Nixnet is the only gitea/forgejo host that has both a clearnet and onion host -- apart from disroot, but disroot’s onion is dysfunctional.

Note that the XMPP support channel is shut down because that was attacked as well.
