MODERATORS
All instances using federation are publicly visible and it's simple to script attacking all of us.
However it's even easier to just attack Lemmy.world since almost everyone is there and it will have maximum disruption on everyone. People have centralized on one server. :)
But it's just some denial of service attacks right now. Eventually they probably get tired of it too. There is no point to it really.
