The funny thing about these DDos attacks on Lemmy World is that the hackers seem to forget that other instances exist. (lemmy.ml)

If they're trying to attack all of Lemmy, or the whole Fediverse, they're doing it wrong. lol

It's like obvious spam emails that put no effort into appearing legitimate. You have the spirit of it, but your heart is in the wrong place.

I'm pretty sure they only have beef with Lemmy.World for being banned from it.

That or they're running an instance and want people to leave here and join theirs. Would make sense for someone who wants to manipulate content and people, crush the popular instance and you're more likely to inherit those users.
