It seems like most times I go to my .world account, I get the bad gateway error. Is there a fix for this?

    AFAIK it’s a mix of DDoS attacks and Lemmy bugs.

      It’s really getting old. But if it’s DDoS attacks, I’m not giving up. I might if it was just repeated resource issues, but I refused to be pushed by assholes.

        There’s no reason not to use a different home instance. It’s generally a good idea for sharing the load.

        On that score, there’s not much use trying to reason it out. The 4chan types seem to like kicking down other people’s sandcastles. It doesn’t buy them anything, they just seem to get off on increasing unhappiness.

        It was me. There is a light switch in my garage … I didn’t know what it was for. Figured out today it launches attacks on Lemmy.world 😭

        I’d personally blame Slovenia, but that might be unfair as there is no evidence or motive. They may still be behind my late car payment, though. In all seriousness, no one knows but the admins have posted about it weekly.
