Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Ddosify (rebranded/associated with Anteon) is a legitimate, high-performance open-source load testing tool with significant traction (8.5k+ GitHub stars, Docker Extension partner), despite the low-quality submission. The submission claims 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' for traction, which are factually incorrect and hyperbolic. However, external verification confirms strong real-world utility, a solid technical foundation (Golang, eBPF), and meaningful adoption in the DevOps/SRE niche. The score reflects the high value of the actual project, penalized significantly by the lack of evidence and effort in the submission data.
