EDIT: May have just been my browser. After restarting my browser, no issues. Who knew that having over 100 tabs open would slow down my browser? haha! So disregard.

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue.

For the last couple of weeks, lemmy.wtf has been going offline for me several times a day. It usually only lasts about 5 minutes, but it keeps happening. Yesterday, I noticed it went offline around 12 times.

My internet seems fine because other sites still load normally. It only seems to be lemmy.wtf.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I only have back-up instances in case of instance closings, and they are: PapaSkwat@discuss.online, PapaSkwat@piefed.zip, PapaSkwat@multiverse.soulism.net, PapaSkwat@nord.pub, PapaSkwat@lemmy.today, lemmings.world (closing).

    I have my backups listed in my profile. I have no clue what you are talking about. If you have a personal issue with those other people, you should message them.

    And nothing you're saying is on topic or helpful for this thread or this community.

    You mean like how you will keep following me around and downvoting everything I post regardless of content? Serial downovoting is why I had to ban you in the first place. Your voting history is public: https://lemvotes.org/user/NewPerspective@lemmy.world

    Seems kinda like you’re targeting people who you disagree with, regardless of the content they post.

    Let's let everyone see that you've admitted your serial downvoting campaign against me today:

    If you don’t care, then why make such a fuss, and why keep following me around? Your voting history is public: https://lemvotes.org/user/NewPerspective@lemmy.world

    I’m genuinely curious. When you get this focused on someone, do you recognize that it’s unhealthy, or do you convince yourself it’s normal? It’s weird, but I guess I should be flattered.

    How often do you think about me? It must be a lot, since you keep showing up and accusing random people of being my “alts.” Every time someone posts something you don’t like, do you wonder if it’s secretly me?

    And if I really were all these different accounts like you claim, what exactly do you think you’re stopping? By your own theory, I could just move to another instance and use a new name whenever I wanted. I'm wondering, how many people do you think I am? Don't be coy, go ahead and give a number. I wanna know! This is fascinating to me!

    So even inside your own bizarre theory, you’re fighting a losing battle. Does that ever occur to you while you’re following me around?

    Ok, you can ring that bell as long as you want. I realize you're obsessed with me, but you're not making sense.

    You’re accusing me of being several different people who argue with each other, hold different views, and even downvote each other. The link you gave me says someone was downvoting the same accounts you claim are my alts.

    So what exactly is the theory here?

    Astroturfing means fake accounts working together to push the same message. But the accounts you listed oppose each other many times. Why would one person create multiple accounts just to argue with themselves and downvote themselves?

    That would be the opposite of astroturfing.

    Lies. These accounts agree and support each other at nearly every turn constantly posting in each other's comms (and nearly ONLY each other's comms). You can't control the narrative. You suck at astroturfing which is why I'm calling you out. Anybody checking out c/generalnews can see the pattern is not as you described. Somebody downvotes a PapaSkwat comment and Quantumtickler bans them, vice versa too.

    The link you posted was about someone you think is me, allegedly creating a bot army to downvote someone else you also think is my alt. Did you even read your own link?

    You keep saying I’m trying to “control a narrative,” but what narrative? Posting random news articles in a general news community is not astroturfing.

    You also said I “suck at astroturfing.” If that’s true, then what exactly is the problem? If my supposed alts are terrible at it and even downvote each other, what would be the point?

    I checked the community I mod, and I don’t see any shared upvotes between the accounts you named as my alts. So again, where is the astroturfing?

    At this point, your claim seems to be that I’m using alts to post random news in a general news community. Even if that were true, why would that be such a serious issue?

    What narrative do you think is being pushed here? This really sounds like a personal vendetta you have because I banned you for serial downvoting, which by the way, is not allowed in my community. You need to move on. lol

    Posting this again in a comm you don't own.

    Funny thing is you started it. You banned me once over a year ago for downvoting your fascist posts. I laughed it off because you're a fucking nobody. But then more accounts started posting the same pro-Trump and pro-green party posts so I blocked you again. And again. And now we're here because if you want a captive audience, you'll get one. Won't let me downvote? I'll use your own tactics against you. Nobody is coming to save you. You withdraw into your comms where you create the ultimate echo chamber until you decide you want more attention and create a new account. We've been at this for over a year and you refuse to change your tactics, Aaron. You even believed when I was an Unwitting Senior and I was better at being a conservative mod than you are. People posted, commented in my comm until I got tired of rubbing your nose in it, then you stole it because ideas against yours must be stopped, right?

    You're an open book. You have been since the beginning. That's why I can find your accounts in under a week.

    You’ve lost me. I'm not conservative and I don't have a conservative community. I have news communities. I'm just trying to add good content to this platform because I believe in Lemmy.

    Who is Aaron? Who is Senior? Is this a mispost?

    Don't take this the wrong way, but you seem unwell. Like you're having an episode or something. I'm not joking. You are not making sense. You seem to think my name is Aaron, or Senior or something. I don't have any clue what's up with what you're saying or who those people are or why you think I am him or her. This conversation is wild! Let's try to stay on topic. My post is about a lemmy.wtf server issue I was having, and seems to be resolved now anyway.

    So somebody created an account with your name over a year before you made this account and we're supposed to believe it wasn't you? Playing dumb has gone too far, that's a lie I don't think the people will believe and you know how stupid us lemmies are. Don't fight it, this account also paints broad strokes of Lemmy like some other accounts I know. You have so many tells.

    I've only been here for 8 months are so. I came over from Reddit because I got banned there for calling the president a fat cheeto pedo. So I joined up here. Nothing you are saying makes any sense and none of it has anything to do with my post or this community or any of my communities. My post is about this instance going down briefly for me, and it seems to have been resolved anyway. No clue what you are going round the bend about.

    So it's fair to ban you being someone else but not to tell you you're being somebody else. Got it. Makes sense, not good sense, but the same sense that had you build a bot army to downvote your own posts.
