amused that some of the most evil social media services in the world are currently broken.

not be wishing them back any time soon.

plurk is so unknown that it's less likely to be the target of a DOS attack, even though it does still attract some trolls and probably is exposed to some degree of internet hacking (or random breakage of servers wherever those reside).

so happy to have been unaffected.

allegedly the relevant server network was in California and part of the problem/delay was that the affected systems had also locked out the people who needed to fix everything (physically/virtually ?).

yes, hence my comment on another Plurk about single points of failure.
