The lemmy.world (lwadmin@lemmy.world) admins release a statement about the recent reoccurring outages at lemmy.world.

They state that for multiple hours per day, they are under a DDOS attack. The attackers find database queries that are 'expensive' to run, to try and overload the database.

The lemmy.world admins also respond to remarks that lemmy.world is too big, and should close down registration.
