Thing is, these terrorists aren't trying to destroy the fediverse, they are trying to retaliate specifically against lemmy.world

Would be cool to know why.

It hasn't been confirmed by the admins, but strongly implied. Recently there have been some instances that lemmy.world defederated from. They are the suspects.

My bet is some drama on one community or another that happens to be on lemmy.world.

DDoS attacks were not a terribly uncommon occurrence on nodes on IRC networks.
