@Kulfy I have to recuse myself from judging. I'm just wondering if the previous title had more "click bait". Basically just fishing (pun noted) for a second opinion.

Q: Wireguard: packets returning from server get lost

Johannes MuellerI set up wireguard by now on one server (with NAT enabled) and on a client. When I don't route all the traffic via the tunnel everything works. As soon as I start routing all the traffic through the tunnel as described in https://www.wireguard.com/netns/#improved-rule-based-routing no traffic is ...

@nobody No idea but the spam posts are taking longer to disappear than "normal".

It is annoying.

Well, you can flag the post as spam. If sufficient spam flags are raised on a post, the post disappears.
It's more effective than downvoting.

@DKBose Indeed it seems the posts actually need around 960 seconds to be handled
this rise only took place yesterday and today
probably due to a high influx of spam posts, smokey is currently going nuts and it seems it reaches the messaging limit quite quickly

@Videonauth this one's been over an hour. So I hope people flag rather than downvote: askubuntu.com/questions/1178296/…

usually it takes an average of 300 seconds for a post to disappear
can you please link this one here
 
DK Bose
DK Bose
@Videonauth done. When Smokey's fully awake, the spam could be cooked in less than 5 seconds! Four automatic flags and two manual (I guess).

Videonauth
ok i just made 3 of them disappear
seems many people simply downvoted the posts and not flagged them

Hmmm I didn't know there was a limit!

@DKBose there is a limit for flag :) 20 for beginners and if you flag a lot you can get up to 100 but then its end
somehow around that values

@Videonauth hope I don't run out of flags! I've been flagging away for quite some time!

@WinEunuuchs2Unix @Kulfy but I play here a devils advocate, 65k people seem to have used a different search term beforehand. Is it really sure that people do such well refined search terms?
 
Kulfy
Kulfy
IMO people just "throw" the error messages on search engine.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix I spent the last few hours reading about this. It's deeply disturbing. I'm not referring to the change of license but the other matter. I fully understand why several moderators, including at least three whose contributions I value, have taken the steps they did.
