Who cares. Lemmy.world sucks. I got tired of the constant server issues and switched a while ago. It took me like 5 minutes to find another instance and create an account. If my new instance does dumb shit like this, I’ll just move again isn’t this the whole point of Lemmy?

Problem isn’t Lemmy.world, it’s the DDOS kiddies attacking whatever instance hosts the most popular communities. Other instances are just as vulnerable.

  If lemmy.world wasn’t so popular and people were more spread out, DDOS attacks would be much less impactful.

    Lemmy.world is pretty small in the grand scheme of social media. It’s only 130k accounts and about 3500 users a day. If Lemmy really takes off, instances the size of currently Lemmy.world are going to be the small fries. Like email, we’re going to have whale domains.

    Yeah, but this is unrealistic.

Do you migrate or just make a new account?

  I just make a new account and switch back and forth depending on server stability. As soon as it starts giving me issues I just switch to an account on another instance. It’s pretty quick and easy with the app I’m using (Sync).
