[Fixed] Comments temporarily broken, being worked on (self.lemmyworld)

There was another attack going on (as you might have noticed). We're working on a fix. In the meantime, we've blocked the listing of comments, so we at least aren't down, but it did break comments.

Hope to have a fix in the next hour. Stay tuned!

Update OK we've implemented a fix, again many thanks to @[email protected] for his assistance. This will prevent the outages we've seen last couple of days. Let's see what they will come up with next...

I'm sure it must be frustrating to have to deal with these attacks, but in a sense they're a signifier of how popular / successful this instance is.

Thanks for all the work you do on it, Ruud.

Also the more attacks there are the more vulnerabilities found and get fixed. I think in the long run it helps the platform to mature and be more stable.
