MODERATORS
Lemmy.world holding such a prevalent place in the Lemmy/Kbin part of the Fediverse makes it a major single point of failure.
They should still be the newcomers instance, but communities and users should migrate to other instances to increase the resilience of the Fediverse.
The uptime on lemmy.world is terrible. https://lemmy-world.statuspage.io currently shows 95% uptime, but it has been "down" from a UX perspective more than half the time I attempted to use it. The uptime reporting is simply not picking up when something is off as much as it should. And they recently added an archive.org proxy for when it goes down... what the heck? I understand that it is run by volunteers and all, but what a buzzkill.
They are been attacked with a DDoS attack for quite some time now. I'm afraid there isn't much they can do.
