Thanks for the update, but this breaks rule #1 - it’s not a question and the community is Ask Lemmy. We can leave this up for a few hours so that there’s a central place to chat.

Then change the title of the post to something open-ended like “How vulnerable is Lemmy to DDOS attacks?”. Taking out a major node which hosts many key communities is going to have an adverse impact.

No problem, your call. I knew this is mostly outside of the community rules but assumed that a bunch of “what’s going on with lemmy.world?” questions will pop up quickly so might as well cross post it here. Feel free to remove when this blows over.

No need, there’s enough other better suited places where news like this can be discussed.

This isn’t an open ended question and as such doesn’t belong on this community. You’re welcome to continue the discussion over at !fediverse@lemmy.ml

I’ll lock the thread but not remove it so that you can see what has been said so far.
