Not a pressing issue but Chudborean's "special chuddie" hat and the dancing Miku on the Sharty thread show up on top of the images whenever you click on a thumbnail (post in image)
Specs:
Windows 10 Desktop
Brave Browser clearnet
No VPN/TOR
Yes, it's Kermit's day off and he'll sober up by tomorrow
Edit: Serious answer, if only part of the page loads but the server connection fails midway, it might load with what it has. Usually a refresh fixes it unless the site is being DDOS'd and then it's luck of the draw.
Further edit: just had the same thing happen to me, it was because my browser reloaded but my Kiwiflare token expired so the browser did its best to draw with what it had cached. Once Kiwiflare refreshed my token everything loaded properly.
I learned about the DDoS from the banner message because things are still working well via TOR. I'm not sure if you have a separate server for the tor node now or what but keep up the good work boss @Null .
During all this DDOS stuff I've been getting into some Kiwiflare loops where it'll validate my session and refresh only to validate the session all over again. Just wanted to raise this as I'm wondering if this constant pinging of the service might be inadvertently contributing to the DDOS.
Tor seems to work a lot better, but on clearnet Kiwiflare will just continually loop or error out. ctrl+f5 refreshing when it says "all done, reloading page" might have a 1 in 10 chance of actually getting you in, but clearnet is super fucky for me right now. Anybody else having these issues?

Under very heavy loads for some reason connections to redis become unreliable and the mitigation system starts receiving false negatives for valid session tokens. I am tinkering with it to try and improve reliability. That seems to be the main bottleneck. The server can eat thousands of requests a second, but if valid uesrs can't access the site anyways it does not matter. My last adjustments seem to be working though. No CPU is over 10%.
I was caught in a Kiwiflare loop for about 1/2 hour. I just let it sit there and reload until it eventually came back. Hope those extra cycles were worth it.
