    I ran into an issue similar to this while hosting my server. Turns out there is a ”feature“ (seems bugged) on my ASUS router called “DDOS Protection” that mistook inbound lemmy traffic as attacks and just dropped them instead of forwarding them. Once that was disabled everything worked like normal. Maybe be worth trying.

    Be ready to use other methods to deal with DDOS though.



  • The idea behind social security is a forced time phased retirement program. The cap for input of money serves to cap the withdrawal later in years. If the wealthy put in a significantly larger amount while working they will be entitled to a proportionally larger about of withdrawal later. We’re just robbing peter to pay paul here and kicking the issue down the road.

    A real solution would be to produce a margin that is invested in a total market fund that would eventually create self sustaining returns to both: pay out current withdrawals as well as grow to match inflation and population growth. But that’s not going to happen.

    TLDR: The ponzi scheme will continue.
