Heard it was DDoS attacks, which seems pretty likely.
Another benefit to using a smaller instance (or hosting your own), you don’t have to worry about this stuff
Hopefully they don’t try to mess with Beehaw, y’all are too nice :)

Even more of a reason to
1 - have an account on multiple instances
2 - support multiple instances. Can’t take everyone down at once!
First account: vlemmy.net - went down 2 days later Second account: lemmy.world - has been DDOSed twice and hacked once the week after making the account Third account: this one.
Which instance do you want me to tank next? Apparently I’m pretty good at it!
Do lemmygrad
Do I have to touch it :(
It seems like you’re expressing something about Lemmygrad that isn’t enthusiastic and unconditional endorsement. Clearly you are a reactionary alt-right racist Nazi, and probably (definitely) a CIA plant.
Call me a CIActi, because I am dry and prickly and dependent on government funds to survive.
Don’t forget anti Chinese racist.
Oh wait, that’s just Lemmy.ml
It’s for the greater good

I don’t think it’s in anyone’s best interests to encourage mass users to any single instance. That “everybody get in this same room” behavior is part of the problem.
Lemmy and the fediverse depend upon users distributing themselves across many reliable instances. More users in a single instance equals more demand on that individual server and more vulnerability based on that single server’s status.

Does he have a way to fund his lemmy instance? I’d love to help support someone like that who contributes to the codebase

Not as extreme. But similar experience. Joined beehaw, then they defederated from some of the main instances I subbed.
Joined another one and it had a 2 day outage.
Just built my own and use the other accounts for specific stuff (ie: beehaw is dedicated to subs only in that instance now. )
threads.net
Lemmy.zip has been pretty boss. The admin is pretty transparent about the server and everyone the so far seem like reasonable folks.
So what really happened to vlemmy.net?
From what I heard, it just kinda poofed.
Here is a writeup about it.
Well not until the next catastrophic federation bug gets discovered and abused 💀
Federation will prevail! 🖖
Yup, I have one on beehaw and one on LW
