How can you tell that it's a DDoS vs just a lot of traffic from AI crawlers or nostr client/apps/searches?
Or is everything just a DDoS these days?
I tend to only use that word if they're actually attacking on purpose, not just for, high load.

Weird traffic patter and concurrent request from the same IPs.
Actually maybe it's not a malicious attack, but some kind of service misuse, we need to check.
coming from the same IPs is the opposite of a DDoS, and the easiest thing to mitigate if the offendoor cannot be contacted to ask if they can please fix their stuff.
