The Fediverse has a problem with accidentally DDoS-ing remote service. What can we do about it?

I was recommended to share this article I wrote a few days ago on here, too; so here we are!

The TL;DR is “link embed fetching communes” as a partial “fix” to the issue (pretty buzzwordy, sorry for that)

“Quit punching yourself” in the form of a cyber attack, more or less.
