PSA: Lemmy.world has been compromised! (Edit: Multiple Instances are down)

posted 1 year ago

FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites.

Maybe the admin got hacked?

edit: lemmy.blahaj.zone has also been hacked. beehaw.org is also down, possibly intentionally by their admins until the issue is fixed.

Lol so how do you expect to be notified then? You don’t think they can get their account back? They’ll get it back eventually.

They have multiple admins. The expectation would be for one of the non compromised admins to make the announcement. It’s a trusted channels thing
