    I’m actually seeing more and more .world users getting pissed as the downtimes become more frequent now.

        I mean that is the problem of too many people being on that one instance.

        From what I understand, capacity isn’t the issue, it’s that they’re being repeatedly DDoS’ed

          Technically, a DDoS can happen naturally if enough people are trying to use it at the same time. I’ve seen it happen to other, larger websites before. And lemmy.world definitely doesn’t have the infrastructure of some of those larger websites.

        I really blame Sync for defaulting to lemmy.world, imo lemmy.world should close to new registrations, at least while they’re figuring things out.

        have half dozen various types. no need to delete. fedi-wide accounts are still a wish. name them the same and carry on. can set a redirect on mastodon. not sure lemmy
