For hours today, yesterday, and intermittently since I’ve been on here (a month or so) lemmy stops loading using jerboa, liftoff, and a web browser.
The site isn’t listed on any down detector I know of, and each app gives different errors but ultimately just won’t load.
It’s often enough that recently when I consider jumping on here I just don’t because there will probably be an issue. Ranging from not loading, JSON errors, or just blank screens and my comments not working…
What’s going on? Is there a status page for these places?
There is a status page up on https://status.lemmy.world
We have been dealing with some DDOS attacks and are still taking extra measures to get everything more stable but we are working with people in different timezones so it’s not always as easy to react.
So yes, we are working on improving things.
Growing pains! I’m much happier here then elsewhere.
See, and that makes us happy
Hacker attacks, a tankie power mod, incel, /poltics being toxic. I think this site has really made it.
It feels good to be home
Perfect thank you!
Do you guys need help dealing with the security side? I can help depending on the need.
How good is your karate? I think they could use another security guard.
I can break boards with my face if I’m drunk enough. That counts right?
You’re in.
You guys have been doing an awesome job maintaining the site, keep it up 👍

Thanks!
Thanks for all your hard work!
There’s been a DOS attack against the site and its database. The admins said they were going to move over to CloudFlare for DDoS protection and yeah, I just checked, they’re getting served by CloudFlare now. Instability issues should go away.
lemmy.world has such a bad performance, it often is pretty close to being totally unusable. What are instances with particularly good performance I could switch to? Is there an account migration/merging tool?
Neat. Bookmarking that for later
Is there a status page for the status page?

This site was showing lemmy.world was down.
That is a handy site
No clue. But, thank you for unlocking a decade old memory of a Tagalog phrase I didn’t know I still knew.
Just checking if this works as I’ve not been able to comment recently.
Was down this morning for me
I load Lemmy in Thunder and web browser and I sometimes say your username everytime I see Cloudflare error, JSON error, or some other BS like “DNS_PROBE_POSSIBLE”
I hope we won’t often see these intermittent errors in the future as they upgrade more at the back end and on the hardware.
