Homepage at https://raw.githack.com/ results in 503

The past couple of days making a request to the homepage results in a 503. For example, using a tool like postman to perform a GET request to https://raw.githack.com/

This breaks tools like awesome-lists that do link liveness validation. Example validation failure.

The problem is that the service was under DDoS, so I've protected the root page with CloudFlare's JS Challenge protection. I've disabled it for now, let's see if that works.

That worked for awesome-lint which is used by lists on sindresorhus/awesome! Example build.

Unfortunate that you were getting DDOS attacked. Hopefully there is a way to serve the homepage without loosing DDOS protection :/
