    This is why we need to move more communities off lemmy.world. Resilience in decentralization

    Am… I the only one who literally wouldn’t even notice lemmy.world going down… if it were not for the posts they are making, regarding their downtime?

      Nah, same here. If anything, the mild drama has brought even more interactive content to my feed. Like a type of a Streisand phenom or something; it’s kinda having the opposite effect for me.

      Definitely a lot of wasted energy by pissy people, who get satisfaction from punching air. They could certainly channel it to something better for everyone… but I’m enjoying myself regardless. The only person who can waste your time is yourself, so I hope whoever’s being bitchy is at least getting something out of it… cause it looks about as productive as a tantrum to me, and just as funny to watch.

      Whoever’s being all butt-hurt out there… I’m laughing at you, not with you. And if you’re that mad, maybe take your energy and use it to help someone offline. Nobody here will care in a little bit anyway.

      Actually, I’ma donate lemme.world a fiver just to drive home my point. Barbara Streisand or some shit lol

    Thing is, these terrorists aren’t trying to destroy the fediverse, they are trying to retaliate specifically against lemmy.world

      How petty do you have to be to hold a grudge towards a specific Lemmy instance? It’s like they’re children who got banned from their favorite Minecraft server.

        If people prevent something being used by tons of other people for no good reason, then this would be a very good one to “hold a grudge” against them for.

        Do i really have to explain such a simple thing to someone. Holy shit it’s like im on Reddit again.

        EDIT: Holy shit i am talking about those morons DDOSing lemmy.world

      Idk if I’d go so far as saying they’re terrorists, they aren’t using violence. But the vibe and dedication makes me think it’s the same person that got mad that they couldn’t run every community on the instance or some shit and then proceeded to spam create hundreds of communities

    Donate a dollar to Lemmy org, lemmy.world, and your own instance. Raise awareness and funds, so the DDoS attackers can feel good about themselves for something besides just bitching behind a curtain
