Yeah, my money’s on the Pleroma federation being the source as well. On my old domain, I ran an ActivityPub relay, subscribed to it and many others on that old Pleroma instance and, well, in addition to spamming the Fediverse (oops!), I completely drowned my instance in traffic; had to abandon the domain for this new one.
I’m a bit gun-shy of relays in particular, you might say. But I’m wondering whether not subscribing to an ActivityPub relays might mean that I’m regulated to some outer ring of the Fediverse. I haven’t found much in the way of documentation around this, tbh; been at the mercy of kindly instance admins learning most of what I know to date.
