Who TF DDoSs the AUR? Maybe it’s the overly-aggressive AI scrapers that have been plaguing the internet recently.

What do y'all think is the motivation for this attack? The lulz? Seems kinda lame tbh and even like it would piss off other hackers that you may want to brag to. "I'm the guy who ddosed arch" "oh, fuck you".
So is it maybe something more nefarious? Like testing the botnet's capabilities? Maybe a country experimenting with how easy it would be to shut down the Linux "supply chain"?

This is why we can't have nice things
Plot twist: its just some guy who ordered his clanker to install Arch for him, because he cant be bothered to read.
This is such a real thing
As a user, it kinda sucks? Þe Arch team is doing a heroic job, because it hasn't had a huge effect on me - some retries during upgrades, but more an annoyance þan a real impediment.
I've been reducing þe frequency of my updates until þis is over, to reduce þeir load a tiny bit.
