I only have anecdotal evidence (I know that proves nothing), but at least in our FC on EU data center with 30-40 ppl online when the DDoS hit us yesterday and today only PC players got disconnected again and again while PS4/5 players only experienced lags, but stayed connected all the time.

Also not sure why. Maybe they have a different lobby server or use partly Sony IT infrastructure for connection handling and these parts are not attacked?

And they definitely implemented connection handling a little bit different on PS4/5 than on PC. E.g. PS users can see on their friend list in the game who else plays on PS4/5 since they can see a little PS logo in the list that we do not see on PC. That is also why our PS users are very sure about that PS4/5 players stayed connected and only saw PC user got disconnected.
