If they're trying to attack all of Lemmy, or the whole Fediverse, they're doing it wrong. lol

It's like obvious spam emails that put no effort into appearing legitimate. You have the spirit of it, but your heart is in the wrong place.

I see a lot of people sticking to one instance. I try to use different ones to mix it up. Yes it’s annoying losing your subscriptions but every instance has a different vibe and community which I like

Using my own instance I guess if it's getting ddos'd I know someone's mad at me specifically lol

Yeah I’m using a smaller instance but love the vibe on smaller ones. I’m glad I can experience the growth of the fediverse.

There are scripts that let you import your subscriptions from other accounts.

Hmm I wonder why a client like sync doesn't just create multiple accounts with the same name automatically and syncs (lol) the subscriptions. If one instance is down, switch to another instantly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That makes a big difference for me knowing about that now. Thx :D
