The Fediverse has a problem with accidentally DDoS-ing remote service. What can we do about it?
I was recommended to share this article I wrote a few days ago on here, too; so here we are!
The TL;DR is "link embed fetching communes" as a partial "fix" to the issue (pretty buzzwordy, sorry for that)
This is certainly not spam but rather a blog response, a time honored practice as old as blogging itself.
OP’s article links to the source article (albeit via its fedipost rather than its blog post; maybe best to link both) and contributes to the online discourse with a long form reply, detailing a possible solution.
Mischaracterizing such a clearly well-intentioned contribution as “blog spam” is disingenuous.
edit: thanks for retracting your comment. I hope my retort won’t dissuade you from continuing to engage in this community :)
