lemmy.world had a DDOS in the past 24 hours, Lemmy.ml was showing problem, but now it is entirely unreachable. lemmy.world was showing “Error!” page (server still reachable), but that seems to have only lasted for a hour or so.
That feel when I miss all the fun in Australia because I was asleep
Why tf aren’t they using Cloudflare for DDoS protection? The site isn’t run for-profit so it would be covered under the free tier. My homelab is proxied through Cloudflare and would be able to handle an attack better than this.
How did you make that Title?!
You can use markdown codes in titles. Bold, italic, and in my case
strikethrough. Two tildes before and after the text.
lemmy.world is back up now (I’m posting this on it). I’m looking forward to @Ruud posting a postmortem.
Completely down
lemmy.ml is back online!
Great now they can continue brigading other instances
Lemmy.world also seems to be sporadically down.
wait, again??
Ok so I have learned that it is always good to have a backup account or two if I am intent on getting my memes
Same but it’s tough to keep favorites synced and blocks and filters.
I wrote a tool that will help: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
Let’s you copy your subs, blocks, and profile settings between Lemmy accounts.
You can run it as many times as you like and will keep adding new things.
At the minute it never removes things though, so you’d have to unsubscribe multiple places.
Well hey, my instance is small
World was down for me too in the last 10 minutes.
Lemmy.world down now for over 30 minutes, Lemmy.ml over an hour (I created this post on Lemmy.world before it went down). Distant Early Warning Sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrDj5XvZXX4
It’s weird, I can access Lemmy.world through sh.itjust.works but I can’t log in. Are they updating maybe?
lemmy.world is reachable, but no database connections, it has an “Error” page on every post I try to load. Which this post itself on Lemmy.world serves as example: https://lemmy.world/post/1578844
I mean, this is one way to find the vulnerabilities in your system, I guess…
it could be anything related to the datacenter outage,server,dns,apache,nginx and so on…
or DDoS
