Hypixel servers, biggest Minecraft community, down for days after DDoS attack

In what is reported as a DDoS attack, the servers of the largest online Minecraft gaming community (bedwars, skyblocks) have been unreachable for days. It looks like they had to setup again their whole infrastructure [0] as a result of “continuous ongoing large-scale attacks on the Minecraft server scene”.

As a funny side effect, hundreds of thousands of Minecraft players frustrated of not being able to access their favorite games are now taking it to YouTube with videos like “what to do when hypixel is down?” [1].
