lemmy.org has been down for a while now, even. I just set up a new account on lemmy.wtf because I assume it might not come back at this point.

Update: lemmy.org is back up, for now, and hopefully it stays up this time, but I got an account set up on lemmy.wtf as a backup should lemmy.org become more unstable in the near future.

I checked after seeing your comment:

.dev is still down for me.
Reddthat is back, but I am not sure if it's back for good or it will have problems later.

.dev is slow, but not down

Something something never buy a car from a mechanic.

Well it does make a significant difference for diagnosing; multiple being slow can mean they're just (D)DOS'd (eg. by scrapers), and the unaffected use Anubis, know the user agents, blocked the IPs etc.; down could mean that the latest lemmy update had a bug and is crashing.
