FAF login issues

For a number of days now FAF has been experiencing distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, periodically preventing users from logging in to the service. The DevOps team is currently trying to tighten the security rules to try and mitigate this.

An alpha release of the client is available in light of the recent DDOS issues:

Note that it will break at some point again because the DevOps team needs to add a missing feature / security feature

For the benefit of those who haven't seen the discord announcement, a new version of the client was released a couple of hours ago.
