Graph of users, searches and searches with no results, peaking at close to 1 million searches in a day on April 1st after hovering around 50 thousand until March 20th, where it first peaked to 600 thousand.
The @algolia.bsky.social search was restored quickly yesterday (thanks!) The bot traffic, that picked up after the JS library upgrade last week, is under control too now. So we hope we don't run into this again.
Search on Packagist is currently unavailable due to large amounts of bot traffic that @algolia.bsky.social did not filter out. They now blocked packagist. UI search and the search API are affected. We are looking into temp workarounds till Algolia resolves our support request from yesterday.
We need your help to test Composer 2.10. Expect a final release next week, now is the time to try it out and flag any issue you find! github.com/composer/com... #composerphp #phpc

🚨 PSA for #PHP package maintainers: DO NOT REPLACE tags! If you messed up a release simply do another. No matter how quickly you notice a mistake, automatic tools already pulled the original tag, triggered automatic updates. Users will never know you recreated the tag and use the broken state. #phpc
