Ask HN: What's Happenning with SourceHut?

6 pointsbayindirh6 comments

SourceHut was unreachable yesterday, but it came back yesterday evening (in GMT+3 terms). Today, it's unreachable again.

Are the network provider having a bad day or are they under DDoS or something?

Oh, I didn't know that they had a status page. Actually, I looked for it yesterday, but I failed to find it.

Thanks!

Whoever is doing this went after codeberg once Drew said they host the status page:

This is wild.

For anyone coming across this, a new page has been set up at https://sourcehut.org/ since the other one doesn't seem to load.

The fact that sourcehut is under such a vicious attack makes me even more certain I did the right thing switching to it from github for my repositories. If "entities" are trying to shut them down or hurt their business using such underhanded means, they must be doing something right.

Don't worry about me Drew, just do your thing. Hopefully this serves to make sourcehut even stronger.
