Hey everyone,

I assuming if you are reading this, you also noticed that the instance has been down for a few hours. We have been struggling with some sort of traffic issue from our mlmym self-hosted instance at https://old.literature.com/. It had been flooding the instance with so many requests that it could not keep up. I went ahead and shut it down and we should be good to go for now. I’m not totally sure what that issue was but if I figure it out I will throw it in the comments.

I also learned today that mlmym has been abandoned by the developer. :(

Anyway hope everything is smooth sailing from here. I will post a more detailed “state of the server” later this week.

Thanks all!

EDIT:

I deployed Anubis in front of mlmym so https://old.literature.com/ is back up for anyone that uses that front end (me included). If this is successful, I mostly likely will deploy Anubis against the main frontend as well. Stay tuned for any announcements about that.
