They have “solved” it many times. The people doing it clearly know what the most resource intensive requests are with Lemmy, and whenever one vector is patched they come up with another.

To be clear: every Lemmy instance has the same vulnerability as World does. World is likely getting attacked because they’re the biggest. They aren’t having any other kind of resource issue - it’s not a problem because of the number of people.

I’m personally faulting the people attacking it and not the admins. They didn’t cause the situation, and I’m not going to let assholes manipulate me into leaving.
