Jumping to conclusions there. Random server issues and routing issues are not that uncommon.

Nope. I’m not jumping to any conclusion.

They announced this on Twitter themselves. I merely updating the thread.

Ironically, you were jumping to conclusions thinking I was.

We’re experiencing continuous heavy DDoS attacks since 48 hours which has impacted our service for some users. Our team is aware of the issue and will fight off the attacks for as long as we need to. Our infrastructure is prepared for this as we fight with bots daily.

It would have helped to include that citation in your original post, instead of something that comes off as just some random statement.

Kindness helps too.

Fine now. But could be unstable for a while as they seem to be working on it.

 

[premkumar]

Its not working for me for the past 30 hours, I don't know it just DDOS or some something else, because chrome says "Your connection is not private".
Hope they fix it soon

 

[TCK]

Correction. Indeed Dan.com team posted they are experiencing DDoS attacks.

Oh no, surely Dan don't have wrong opinions too that might cause someone in their back bedroom to get upset, that's naughty! .

They have the right opinions I'm sure.

Seriously though I suspect the two are completely unrelated. Luckily DDoS protection is generally free and common place from services like Cloudflare so hopefully they will be aided by services like that who are experts in this kind of thing and have the might to absorb attacks.
