Having all kinds of rate limiting problems recently with all of the following services, is there some sort of global anti-nostr campaign underway?
- npm / yarn rate limited
- docker hub rate limited
- imgur rate limited

Not sure about the first two, but imgur probably doesn’t like image proxies intercepting because it can be used to bypass seeing ads on the image page.
They even rate limited my home IP and my VPN IP and nostr:npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc was seeing the same thing
Yeah – definitely some odd things going on. nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 looks like it's something with the image proxy, not the underlying services here since it's both imgur and void.cat.
Perhaps they’re using something like CloudFlare and it thinks Snort related domains are trying to DDoS?
