They are the biggest, so the target is larger or at least more well known.
I hate assholes that do this. Why? I mean really why?
Some men just want to watch the world burn. Namely assholes.
The only DDoS that I can half-way tolerate is ones that go against corporations/governments that do evil shit. And even then, those attacks had better not effect people's health and welfare needs. Yes, assholes abound.
Children. They’re children. Let’s not call these childish little bastards “men”!
Apologies, it can also be women. I'm just constrained by the quote.
They're back, but performance is a bit slow.
lemmy.ml has been unreachable or "Error" page with lemmy-ui off an on for past 90 minutes.
What would be the probability of u/spez being behind this attack, in an attempt to sabotage lemmy?
Absolutely zero.
From the man himself lmao
That's exactly what someone DDoSing lemmy.world would say. Get him!
Some of the larger subreddits probably have more traffic than all of lemmy. I don't think he's spending his time trying to figure out how to sabotage lemmy.
IRC has had a history of people trying to take down servers from time to time.
I'd guess a random person who got banned from a lemmy.world community or the like.
Well I’m blaming him regardless of his involvement
This, to me, seems the healthiest approach.
FYI, this is an attempt at humour, clearly "/s" is needed on lemmy as much as it was on reddit 😅

Lets be honest... he is too busy single-handedly destroy reddit to worry about messing with Lemmy. I think lemmy is the least of his issues right now.
Again??
Edit: I know the last wasn't DDOS, but still.
