This still baffles me, but I guess it's good for federation? (i.imgflip.com)

I've explicitly been using my beehaw.org account pretty much exclusively because of the constant DDOS attacks on lemmy.world.

Kinda funny how their plan to seemingly kill Lemmy is just helping it stay decentralized by pushing people to other instances.

do you think i'd have a chance at getting in if for my application i just say i want to get away from lemmygrad and hexbear?

[–] lukini@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

It wouldn't hurt mentioning that as part of your application lol

You can’t really kill a decentralized service without burning down the whole internet. Another way would be to offer a competing services, but that hasn’t killed e-mail yet.
