The attackers found another slow db query to exploit, so had to put some temporary measures in place.

Will post more details later!

This time they actually took down the instance for several hours.

I see some comments not being federated yet, here is one example:

https://lemmy.today/post/42824004 (112 comments, last comment 1 hour ago)

https://lemmy.world/post/39592788 ( 108 comments, last comment 3 hours ago)

https://sh.itjust.works/post/50825191 (105 comments, last comment 3 hours ago)

In this example, lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works has less comments than lemmy.today on the same post.

Normally comments show up right away so perhaps this is a sign of a problem. Will keep looking at it during the day.
