Photon.Lemmy is down
Lemmy.world is having some serious issues lately. See https://lemmy-world.statuspage.io/
I'm seriously considering switching to a different instance.
It's unrelated to Photon.
You do what you want to do, you can still reach the communities here.
But let me repeat that these are DDOS attacks. There are a few who want to see this server go down and/or push us to 'close registrations'. Also the deferation from the extreme right and left instances made us some more enemies.
They're trying to make it look as if we can not handle the load for their own benefit. But it's a targeted attack by people who know the inner workings of Lemmy.
Has there been any posts on this outside of discord? Anything we can do? It's been noticable and I have an alt I can use when lemmy.world is down, but I didn't even realize this was happening.
