Is anyone gonna explain this to us or are we supposed to ignore it?

Well, it said it was down for maintenance. I don't know what that maintenance consisted of, but now I can't access the website with my usual browser... Cloudflare strikes again.

I got a security popup ("Checking if your connection to the site is secure") when I visited. They're probably getting DDoSed again.

Good to know it's not just me. I couldn't even load the site properly earlier; now it loads, but I can't browse images. (The only ones that load are peoples' avatars, for some reason) I wish e621 had an official "status" site to get more info.

I can only assume the people running the site are doing their job. Keeping it running and the maintenance is to keep people targeting furries off the site.
