Plot twist: it's the lemmy.ml team doing the ddos'ing

[–] clearedtoland 50 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I mean they did say the attackers had intimate knowledge of Lemmy so…

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 years ago

That is not saying anything, the full documentation and source code is public for everyone to read.

Ugh. For five peaceful seconds I'd forgotten about that ungainly rat.

[–] idunnololz 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's like the game but with Spez

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Screw you, I forgot about the game.

I actually migrated to lemmy.ca, eh, since lemmy.world is down half the fucking time. I have enemies to destroy, and I don't got time for that shit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Lemmy.ca is the superior instance and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Would be great if people spread out a bit.

Use small instances. I've never had trouble on lemdro.id.

[–] DrMango 9 points 2 years ago (4 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

You could use lemmyverse.net to look what instances and communities there are

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

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.

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

At the bottom of every Lemmy page, there is a link in the footer that says "instances". It lists every instances currently federating with this server. Just look at the list and pick something that catch your eye. Note that it lists not just Lemmy instances, but also kbin, mastodon, etc.

Or make your own

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is the way.

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

That's what she said

[–] GentooPhysicist 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I truly dislike .zip domain names tho

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are they too compressed for you? ;)

lemmy.sdf.org is a nice instance.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Kbin.social has been incredibly solid recently

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

I'm a big fan, just wish it didn't block so much nsfw stuff

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I feel like it’s been pretty solid the whole time.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

First couple weeks were pretty rough, but it's been real smooth sailing since that all got smoothed out
