We've now also setup Anubis anti-bot gate in-front of all of the sites and directly after the initial Nginx Proxy Manager (we're using our own customised installer - npm-native) which made a significant difference it network utilisation - here is how it looked before and after once we enabled the Anubis:

Thanks Kim

The wiki (https://wiki.os2world.com) is now accesible, since it was being hammered very bad.
Let's see how it progress with time.

I don't think Anubus works with the Firefox 45 browser. At least it doesn't work with mine.

Hi Neil

You might want to have a read of the Anubis discussion as the user_pref line should work with firefox.

Is it intentional that attachments are no longer visible if not signed in? Since my login isn't remembered, I seldom bother to do do unless posting.

Hello Rich

Check if it works now. It was turned off for the bot problems we had, but let's see if with Anubis we mitigated that issue.

Thank you Kim and Tommy for all the efforts during all this time.

I can not believe that OS2World had been 26 years online. We defined OS2World official birth date as March 27 (next friday).
I still remember that I wrote you back on 2000 and told you I wanted to help with the news of the site.

I'm 47 years old and I had been collaborating with the OS/2 Community for more than half of my life, which I feel it as something special :_)

Regards

Thanks to ALL of you for everything you've done helping the OS/2 community.

It is VERY fast for me now. I'm currently using a Mac with Safari and it is working great!

Looks good - thanks for fixing that.
