I'm no longer at Cloudflare, and the DDoS engineers there have shared a few things... but the software we made is running as it should and it's all ticking along nicely with no issue. Bear in mind it all coped perfectly whilst other wars were on, and whilst the Hong Kong protests happened, etc. So the DDoS engineers protecting large swathes of the internet are merely reporting a bigger number on their screen of "concurrent active attacks" and still nothing gets through.
But... the private and encrypted non-work IRC networks... those are busier 😁 Also a lot of fun.
