New to the instance. Had a couple good days using Connect for Lemmy on Android before I started getting a message that the server is “undergoing maintenance”, but the web version loads fine after a Cloudflare challenge. I assume this is what’s causing the issue. Am I missing something? Is there some way to allow app traffic? Anybody else experiencing this?

    I didn’t see this message until someone on discord notified me. Having a crunk night over here in Colorado. I have lowered the settings and it seems to have fixed it. Please let me know if you’re still seeing issues.

    The box this instance is hosted on was pegged at a 100% CPU for a while until we turned on the Cloudflare protection, then it finally calmed down. Didn’t realise it would break the clients as well, sorry!

      Yeah same experience here using wefwef.app. It was working great all day yesterday, and about half way through the day today I noticed it was not working. Would love to be able to use that PWA again. It was so similar to Apollo, it was great!

          Oh I’m not upset at all! Thank you for administering the site! I figured you had an influx of users and the cloudflare ddos protection is helpful under those times. I ended up just using the web interface, which was totally fine. Thanks for being admin!

          Future Lemmy release will enable CORS headers which will allow web clients to connect directly to Lemmy server. This should make it easier for clients to reach server through Cloudflare filters.

            Seems like mobile for lemmy in general (any instance) is just suffering. I couldn’t create an account or login using iOS. Desktop is fine, but it acts like JS doesn’t even work on mobile browsers, at least my mobile browsers.

            As mentioned in other parts of this thread, it’s all a WIP. I’m just happy to have a proper reddit alternative
