has lemmy.world been going down these past few days or is it the app I use?

For hours today, yesterday, and intermittently since I've been on here (a month or so) lemmy stops loading using jerboa, liftoff, and a web browser.
The site isn't listed on any down detector I know of, and each app gives different errors but ultimately just won't load.
It's often enough that recently when I consider jumping on here I just don't because there will probably be an issue. Ranging from not loading, JSON errors, or just blank screens and my comments not working..
What's going on? Is there a status page for these places?
There is a status page up on https://status.lemmy.world
We have been dealing with some DDOS attacks and are still taking extra measures to get everything more stable but we are working with people in different timezones so it's not always as easy to react.
So yes, we are working on improving things.
There's been a DOS attack against the site and its database. The admins said they were going to move over to CloudFlare for DDoS protection and yeah, I just checked, they're getting served by CloudFlare now. Instability issues should go away.
Use a different instance. That one is overloaded. Honestly I think they should close sign ups for a while.
@PutangInaMo The instance is likely down. Luckily you can set up an alternate account on an alternate fediverse platform and browse your communities like nothing happened. That's what I did.
The fediverse is so awesome.

This site was showing lemmy.world was down.
No clue. But, thank you for unlocking a decade old memory of a Tagalog phrase I didn’t know I still knew.
lemmy.ml is also experiencing issues. both sites seems to have login disabled for almost 24 hours now. if they’re experiencing a DDoS attack, that would finally explain why.
Was down this morning for me
Just checking if this works as I've not been able to comment recently.
Putangina mo!
