lemmy.world had a DDOS in the past 24 hours, Lemmy.ml was showing problem, but now it is entirely unreachable. lemmy.world was showing “Error!” page (server still reachable), but that seems to have only lasted for a hour or so.

      I’m not on works or world, but I see your 4m old comment. Maybe it works like file sharing where there are seeds and peers? And without seeds, we can still see some content?

        Your instance is federated with those instances, so you see his content. Thats really all there is too it. He was able to comment since world is back up now

      Well that makes more sense. That explains how you can see beehaw.org stuff and even comment but they never get updated. I think I might be understanding this stuff a little now, thanks.
