Heard it was DDoS attacks, which seems pretty likely.
Another benefit to using a smaller instance (or hosting your own), you don't have to worry about this stuff

Hopefully they don't try to mess with Beehaw, y'all are too nice :)

Even more of a reason to

1 - have an account on multiple instances

2 - support multiple instances. Can't take everyone down at once!

First account: vlemmy.net - went down 2 days later Second account: lemmy.world - has been DDOSed twice and hacked once the week after making the account Third account: this one.

Which instance do you want me to tank next? Apparently I’m pretty good at it!

It seems like you're expressing something about Lemmygrad that isn't enthusiastic and unconditional endorsement. Clearly you are a reactionary alt-right racist Nazi, and probably (definitely) a CIA plant.

Call me a CIActi, because I am dry and prickly and dependent on government funds to survive.

Don't forget anti Chinese racist.

Oh wait, that's just Lemmy.ml

Not as extreme. But similar experience. Joined beehaw, then they defederated from some of the main instances I subbed.

Joined another one and it had a 2 day outage.

Just built my own and use the other accounts for specific stuff (ie: beehaw is dedicated to subs only in that instance now. )

So what really happened to vlemmy.net?

[-] Ganbat@lemmyonline.com 4 points 1 year ago

From what I heard, it just kinda poofed.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

Lemmy.zip has been pretty boss. The admin is pretty transparent about the server and everyone the so far seem like reasonable folks.

can't down everyone at once

Well not until the next catastrophic federation bug gets discovered and abused 💀

Federation will prevail! 🖖
