    Didn’t they start using cloudflare to protect against constant ddos attacks causing downtime? Out of both options, having downtime from external servers failing is less of a headache to the admins (they are volunteers, this is the most important factor) than having downtime from internal servers failing.

      Yeah, it’s far better to have a once in a year downtime together with the whole internet than getting a constant DDOS.
