Dear Fedi friends,

Would you like a visual representation of the "Mastodon Hug of Death"? AKA your site immediately going offline when you post a link on Mastodon... because thousands of servers are trying to fetch the preview image?

I have talked about it in the past and I feel like several people didn't believe me.

I experienced it twice with my self-hosted Ghost blog, before I had Varnish cache protecting it.

Well well well, a few minutes ago I experienced the Hug of Death (also known as the "Mastodon stampede") after posting a link to my Wordpress site. I had made a landing page for my Fedi promo video where you can download shorter clips and stills.

A few SECONDS after posting a toot with the link on Mastodon my Wordpress site went offline.

I immediately deleted the toot and went to check out the dashboard of my web hosting site, so I could clear the cache.

This is the image I saw - I GASPED OUT LOUD: nearly 4000 requests in seconds. That's how you DDOS yourself 🤪​

I just re-posted the toot by adding an image from my computer so that thousands of servers wouldn't try to get the cover image from the post itself (media from a toot overwrite cover images from blog posts)

Just a regular Tuesday afternoon 20 minutes before I need to go get my child from pre-school 😅​

🇳🇱🚲🌷& 🍪 A trip to the Netherlands is never a wasted opportunity to nerd out on semiconductor technology. A thesis defence brought me to TU Delft, but this time I was not gonna miss the opportunity to see the Mapper machine!

2011년부터 지금까지 인천공항공사 3개 자회사 노동자 중 10명이 심근경색이나 뇌출혈 등의 진단을 받았습니다. 3명은 숨졌고 1명은 뇌사상태, 1명은 근무가 불가능해 2021년 퇴사했습니다. 난임과 유산 사례도 2건이나 있었습니다. 모두 ‘야간근무가 원인으로 추정된다’는 의사 소견이 나왔습니다.

そういえば、はじめて町にカラオケボックスできたからって中学生か高校生の頃に行ったのが、コンテナみたいなやつだったよなという覚えがあったけどやっぱりそうだった。たぶん90年代半ばくらい、山口県。

"それまでもクルーザーを改造したカラオケボックスなど、ボーカルスペースの変わり種は存在したが、船舶用コンテナを改造した屋外型カラオケボックスが岡山県に登場したのは'85年である。そこでは主にCDオートチェンジャーが導入されていた。"
