Same. Daily user since TestFlight went active and mine sits at 178mb. Looks like the op found it was the iOS beta, which makes sense. I’d bet debug logging is on and they’re getting a ton of logs.

I have a pretty unique domain name and don’t mind the $7 a month to run the instance on AWS. I’m not going to do a ton with it, but I would if there was interest.

In my case, yes. I asked for a reason written in code (working or not). Since I intend to be a DevOps focused instance, there’s no excuse. Most humans would read the application and I don’t feel bad for denying based on this requirement.

Also helps that after 8 of those bots apps, the message is very similar. If there was a human in that mix, they can dm me and ask for reconsideration.

Same here. My application asks for something to make me laugh, in code. Had someone post his email in base64 with a joke. funny. So far, 2 bots an hour have been applying. easy to catch, for now.

for larger instances, this makes sense. For us smaller instances, just add a custom application requirement that isn’t about reddit. though i’ll be adding captcha too if they keep at it (every hour, 2 bots apply).

I’ve seen bots trying to create accounts, it’s the same boring message about needing a new home because “random reason about reddit”. I’ll borrow a quote from Mr Samuel Jackson: “I don’t remember asking you a god damn thing about reddit”… and application is denied.

I’ll second the rad power bikes, especially if you have a local store like Seattle or Denver. I just picked up a plus 3, loving it. 45 mile battery, better pedal assist up hills, old accessories moved over nonissue. I personally have had zero issues with customer service, but I’m also inclined to repair things myself vs calling for help.

For reference, I’m in a walkable score city of 35, so driving a car was my only other option to go anywhere in a reasonable time. With front and back baskets, I’m able to go shopping, bring the dogs to the dog park, even rode to the docs today 25mi commute total. Price was great too, $2250 out the door.

This has been amazing so far, love the new multiple accounts and I’ve been really enjoying this almost over the web side.

Suggestion, default to ALL communities and TopDaily to give new users a better experience (not that HOT is bad).
