Dear HN colleagues: let's be careful about swamping those Aleph folks with traffic. They probably have enemies around the web that would exploit any overload and outage. Slashdotting can definitely turn into an unintended dDOS attack.
Better yet: maybe somebody with access to some kind of attack-resistant CDN provider could help them migrate.
If they haven't already.

The infrastructure is all github or docker, which already scales. Are we worried about dos-ing the documentation website? https://xkcd.com/932/ https://xkcd.com/932/
