Right. They use cloudflare for DDos protection I believe. But the problem with Gab for the last few days is that they cannot handle the flow of new people coming in. They should have capped their registrations until they increased their server capacity. Now they are useless. They killed themselves.

Hearing it may have been planned as they increase server capacity. We shall see.

Good point. I've heard the same thing. Think about what happened when FR migrated not long ago; it was down for at least a couple of days, IIRC.

It won’t let you put in their direct IP address either!

My take as well. But ...

I always believed that only the website owner could delete their DNS address. If so, it may be that gab.com wants to be really off line while they work on their system. They need more server hardware to deal with the huge increase in their traffic.

Hoping so.

It’s overloaded. I just got in, but it’s spotty right now.

Your post reminds me of a conversation I had with my oldest son (he's in law enforcement.)

I've been a ham for 18 years. In all the time he was growing up, he's never EVER expressed an interest in my hobby.

Last night he asked "Dad, what do I have to do to become a Ham like you?"

ROFL!!! Ordered him the Tech and General Class License Exam books last night and arranged for three VEC's I know to administer both those tests for him in two weeks.

He'll pass. He has my technical brain even though he's in law enforcement.

And what’s funny is that it’s technically not a Cloud. It’s simply an off-site server farm. But it’s being sold as if there’s this endless server in the sky or something.
