I’m just asking for recommendations in case, I feel like migrating to a smaller instance or maybe try kbin for a change (but I’ll miss the voyager web app)

    Tried lemmy.world and lemmy.one but they were both down frequently last week. Bounced to lemm.ee and it’s been great so far. The admin is knowledgeable and cares about hosting.

        DDOS attacks have been hitting fediverse sights. LW is combating it. Once they lock it down the DDOS attacks will turn to the smaller servers.

          If only lemmy.world would invest into something like stormwall, ddos-guard or nexuspipe. Cloudflare is complete dogshit against most modern ddos attacks (unfortunately).

            Most anti-DDOS tools don’t deal with federation well. They keep out the obvious and less obvious automated requests, but federating servers are exactly that, automated requests.

            Until there’s some anti-DDOS service that understands the details of ActivityPub, I don’t think we’ll see servers survive such attacks.

        This is not true. C’mon.

        Does it go down? Yes. Annoying. Has it been down longer than it’s been up? Of course not.

            They are probably doing the best they can do…

              They really, really are not - from a technical or social lens. I remember an admin coming into a conversation to shut down comments and telling everybody to be nice to the nazis we were dunking on, or else.

              They’re Spez - cryptofascists posing as liberals to create a captive audience they can push into the right wing pipeline.

            Then get the fuck out of here and don’t come back. Geez. What’s the point of the fediverse if you’re going to whine like a little redditor?
