If there is one thing I have learned from lemmy so far, is there are a lot of weirdos on here with an axe to grind. world and ml get regularly DDOSed, there was the time when world got hacked and got a ton of horrible stuff posted to it, and there was that one user who claimed a lot of communities and sat on them, only to vow revenge when they got banned.

My guess is that Lemmy is at the weird intersection where it's popular enough that people get satisfaction from "breaking" it while also not being mature enough to have robust ways to defend against it. The project did get forced into the limelight after all and it's fantastic that everything has scaled as well as it has so far
