  • Quickly skimming the readme, it states:

    • OAuth token spoofing: To circumvent rate limits imposed by Reddit, OAuth token spoofing is used to mimick the most common iOS and Android clients. While spoofing both iOS and Android clients was explored, only the Android client was chosen due to content restrictions when using an anonymous iOS client.
    • Token refreshing: The authentication token is refreshed every 24 hours, emulating the behavior of the official Android app.
    • HTTP header mimicking: Efforts are made to send along as many of the official app’s headers as possible to reduce the likelihood of Reddit’s crackdown on Redlib’s requests.








  • Not that it helps but the CEO claims they forgive for this type of attack/event. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39521986

    Netlify CEO here.

    Our support team has reached out to the user from the thread to let them know they’re not getting charged for this.

    It’s currently our policy to not shut down free sites during traffic spikes that doesn’t match attack patterns, but instead forgiving any bills from legitimate mistakes after the fact.

    Apologies that this didn’t come through in the initial support reply.

    And later they were asked if they would have responded if it didn’t go viral. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39522029

    Question:

    There are only two questions everyone have:

    1. Would Netlify forgive the bill if this didn’t go viral?

    2. How do you plan to address this issue so that it never happens again?

    Everyone here knew someone from Netlify would come and say OP wouldn’t have to pay. That was a given. Now we want to know the important answers.

    Answer by CEO:

    1. Yes. We’ve forgiven lots and lots of bills over the last 9 years and they haven’t gone viral

    2. While I’ve always favored erring towards keeping people’s sites up we are currently working on changing the default behavior to never let free sites incur overages


  • ~53 W

    • Server:

      • AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
      • 4x16 GB DDR4 3200 Mhz
      • 256 GB NVMe as boot-disk
      • 2x256 GB Samsung SSDs for VMs
      • 2x2 TB WD Red Plus HDDs
    • Mini PC: Beelink S12 N95

      • 16 GB DDR4
      • 256 GB NVMe
    • 8 port unmanaged TP Link switch

    I would like to expand my storage, however I don’t have any available SATA ports and I believe adding an HBA would increase the idle draw about 8 W. I might just upgrade the SSDs and split the storage between the HDDs and SSDs.
