lemmy.world had a DDOS in the past 24 hours, Lemmy.ml was showing problem, but now it is entirely unreachable. lemmy.world was showing "Error!" page (server still reachable), but that seems to have only lasted for a hour or so.

I mean, this is one way to find the vulnerabilities in your system, I guess...

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

it could be anything related to the datacenter outage,server,dns,apache,nginx and so on...

Ok so I have learned that it is always good to have a backup account or two if I am intent on getting my memes

lemm.ee has always been solid for me. At this point, I'm debating whether to just make it my primary instance instead.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Nice! I've more or less switched lemdro.id

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Same but it’s tough to keep favorites synced and blocks and filters.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I wrote a tool that will help: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim

Let's you copy your subs, blocks, and profile settings between Lemmy accounts.

You can run it as many times as you like and will keep adding new things.

At the minute it never removes things though, so you'd have to unsubscribe multiple places.

True true. Hopefully some of the upcoming 3rd party apps can address some of the issues like this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ya if they have cloud user data.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Cloud? I'm making one, and doing everything locally. Your phone can hold a small database - from there it's all data management. It's

I haven't started synching accounts yet, but it's in the works. Eventually, I want to do custom feeds and stitch feeds from multiple servers/accounts together

I neither want nor need your data though... It's harder to do it all on the device, but it's very doable

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

That’s what I just did. Also found a tool to subscribe me to all the communities.

Can you check again please?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

lemmy.world is back up now (I'm posting this on it). I'm looking forward to @Ruud posting a postmortem.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Lemmy.world also seems to be sporadically down.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

wait, again??

This information clarified so much of this morning for me.

Was troubleshooting on my phone because I thought it was my kids using all the bandwidth for YouTube (kids)) and Roblox on a slower than normal Sunday.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Fuck you, Zuck & Musk, lick my taint

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

That feel when I miss all the fun in Australia because I was asleep

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Well hey, my instance is small

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Lemmy.world is now responding some at least, and some of the comments from remote servers came into this posting just now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

World was down for me too in the last 10 minutes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (14 children)

Lemmy.world down now for over 30 minutes, Lemmy.ml over an hour (I created this post on Lemmy.world before it went down). Distant Early Warning Sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrDj5XvZXX4

.world is down as well right? fuck

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lemmy.world is still hard to reach.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

6 hours down for lemmy.ml is really going to have a lot of items queued on lemmy.world, beehaw, and other popular servers to delivery to lemmy.ml - causing resources to climb on all those servers.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Beehaw.org was down for over 30 minutes, came back for 15 minutes, now down again another 30 minutes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I wonder what happens to posts made to lemmy.ml communities when it comes back up, will they sync to other instances?

Why tf aren’t they using Cloudflare for DDoS protection? The site isn’t run for-profit so it would be covered under the free tier. My homelab is proxied through Cloudflare and would be able to handle an attack better than this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

https://sh.itjust.works/ is returning "Server error" on all pages, not sure how long that has been going on.
apparently over 45 minutes so far: https://lemmy.world/post/1604919

How did you make that Title?!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You can use markdown codes in titles. Bold, italic, and in my case ~~strikethrough~~. Two tildes before and after the text.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

looks like lemmy will be getting Cloudflare support soon

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Well... there has to be something lemmy does right I guess
