Does anyone know why Lemmy.world has been unstable for the past two weeks? (lemmy.world)

In the past two weeks, the site has been very unstable, sometimes for one second a page would load and the next it wouldn't load at all. The status of lemmy.world would fluctuate a lot on lemmy-status.org, and there have times where the site has been down for hours.

DDOS attacks

Didn't they also say that there were other kinds of attacks being used as well, not just DDoS I may be remembering wrong but I feel like I heard one of the admins say something about a database related attack where they overloaded the database with download requests or something like that.

Could be, I'll look into that
