From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They have adopted Cloudflare and used IP blocking. This does not impact their repos, just the forum.

I start to believe that Cloudflare is the one who does all the DDOS attacks.

Holy hell! They should have sued Cloudflare for that! It essentially amounts to extortion
