I think this is the photography site he’s talking about.
He mentioned “so many scrapers hit my site that it saturated my upload with generated content feeding the them.” which seemed unusual to me. I’m not sure why such a site would have a public upload. It doesn’t feel like a site that would have a technical challenge with the scrapers, but I also get the impression the main issue is the thought of hosting all his photos just for AI scrapers to train their image generation models.
I believe you, but the linked article is not about hosting Lemmy.
No it’s not, it was more of a tangential comment.

I interpreted that as LP having the site running in their basement, and responding to scrapers saturates their outgoing bandwidth.
