Trying to purge them and set up with Lemmy Ansible, I’ve disabled signups without admin approval for now.
I see a postgres container and a password but I’m not very familiar with postgres, I tried psql but can’t get access
Edit: Also anyone who’s de-federated with us, please reconsider. We’re a small server with active admin and will get a handle on this, I promise! We had an easy process to sign up for a few days while I got my users over and forgot to turn it off
Edit2: Looking much more healthy now, I will put the commands I’ve used in a comment below
Hey there! Thank you for reaching out. I’ll definitely not block your instance then. Regarding postgres, first login to the postgres container with
docker exec -it containername busybox /bin/sh
You can get the container name by running
docker ps
. Once inside login to psql console withpsql -U lemmy
I’ve written this from memory, but it should be very similar if not the same.
EDIT: Consider saving the usernames and details of the bots that signed up. We might be able to use that for some analysis.
Yup I’ve got them, luckily 5 or more repeating numbers in their email pretty much identified 99% of them. Would you like me to send the CSV somewhere? 27k+ bots
It’s be interesting to see where they are coming from, do you have up and user agents in the logs at all?
I don’t unfortunately, I deliberately don’t log that due to some of the sensitive stuff on my own instance (we’re China based)
