We're back online

Well that was weird. One moment everything was fine, the next the server is down and I can't start it. It was a bigger issue than just being "down", but I won't go into detail just to be safe. No evidence it was an attack. So it was either a fluke or something else. Anyway, we are back.

For the price (free) cloudflare is the best option. Without it the site would not exist. I could go to a different service but I would have to take in donos.

Unless there is another option I am not aware of.

Can we all run out own servers and colocate and stuff?

Cloudflare will drop this site at any moment for any reason.

Either start taking donations now to become independent of the Zog, or lose the ability forever.

Cloudflare will happily drop you until your site suits their censorious whims.

Those that would need them most get fucked over by them.

Find a backup plan.

Thank you system. Received a Cloudflare restricting access notification when I tried to open voat up. Very weird indeed.

Might it be a good idea to get a donation system going, before they cancel you and all you can take are crypto? Any website takes time and money to run. There might be a period that Voat flies under the radar.
