after posting about 10 of these 1gb vids from a throwaway account, it got shadowbanned. might do more later.

Why did you get banned? Did you post them to /r/Noise ?
You can't just DoS their servers like that, but feel free to contribute noise to the appropriate sub.

not banned, shadowbanned. I can post, but my posts aren't visible to anyone else, and I get notifications that it's happened.

but the point isn't for it to be seen, the point is to screw with their bandwidth and their servers. if you think that a single person uploading 1GB videos = DoS, you don't know what DoS means.

To your DoS statement, can you clarify by explaining what you are attempting to do with these uploads?

[-] BrooklynMan@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

are... are you serious? i just explained that.

[-] nightauthor@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

It’s just kinda sounded like you’re trying to deny service of their bandwidth and servers.
