Its that time again
(lemmy.ml)
Plot twist: it's the lemmy.ml team doing the ddos'ing
I mean they did say the attackers had intimate knowledge of Lemmy so…
That is not saying anything, the full documentation and source code is public for everyone to read.
Time to point fingers (at other instances)!!!1
WE NEED TO FIGHT
who is doing the ddosing is prime material for conspiracy theories

It's obviously funded by spez
Ugh. For five peaceful seconds I'd forgotten about that ungainly rat.
Ah yes, so they have another large instance to ddos
Use smaller instances like lemmy.zip or lemm.ee. You know, the entire point of decentralization.
It's not just about users though, we need to separate communities as well. There are so many communities on lemmy.world currently.
This. I feel like world isn't prioritizing the health of the entirety of Lemmy by not closing community creation.
Isn't that up to the creators though. If world is their home instance, why would they create elsewhere? Not being able to create communities would kind of defeat the purpose.
If creators want engagement, they will create on subs with more uptime. That will likely be world in the future, when hardened. The ddos attacks aren't good for Lemmy now, but it should iron out some wrinkles in the long run for all instances. I think the world admins are doing a great job, both technically and communication wise.

Lemmy needs a refpost system where you can choose to post articles to different instances that link together.
You then can get all the benefits of centralization without necessarily being centralized.
Isn't lemm.ee running on commercial hardware designed to take much larger server loads?
Like every other instance?

How long will it take, do you think, for lemm.ee to become one of the bigger instances? I keep seeing people mention it, and that's why I'm here.
lemm.ee is larger than lemmy.ml by active users monthly, as such it's already the second largest instance. Don't let the "total users" number confuse you: lemmy.ml is ancient and is bound to have many inactive accounts.
I don't know why Hexbear's numbers are all blank (because it's newly federated?) but I would expect it to take second or third place.

Would be great if people spread out a bit.
Use small instances. I've never had trouble on lemdro.id.
How do I even find other instances? Not trying to sound like a turd, I just legitimately haven't looked into it at all yet
You could use lemmyverse.net to look what instances and communities there are
I think it usually just involves look around the comment sections. People are like "I'm on this instance, it's good blah blah blah."
In my case though I chose lemdro.id because it's an instance that centers around a topic I'm interested in.

This is the way.
Don't join big instances. There should be no main instance. Join small instances. Spread the load

Or make your own
Not a competition.
Meanwhile me on lemmy.zip -
grabs popcorn
I truly dislike .zip domain names tho
Are they too compressed for you? ;)

can't wait for them to blame another instance with no evidence whatsoever
lemmy.sdf.org is a nice instance.
Kbin.social has been incredibly solid recently
I'm a big fan, just wish it didn't block so much nsfw stuff
I feel like it’s been pretty solid the whole time.
because we don't have a fascist tankie at the helm 😎
Please don't play into Enlightened Centrist horseshoe theory crap by pretending that the idiots of both extremes are identical.. While it has some superficial things in common with Stalin style tankiness, fascism is 100% a right wing ideology.
First couple weeks were pretty rough, but it's been real smooth sailing since that all got smoothed out
