Are they just an issue with wefwef or trying to use an exploit

I don’t know what Lemmy uses tbh. I don’t even know if the code would work when run. Like i don’t know e.g. if they grab the username(?) correctly. I just understand their intentions but yeah their execution might be horrible.

I’d be willing to bet they’re using the API to make all the changes. The cookie has the jwt token. I don’t believe you need the username (at least judging by the js API docs).

Someone said they think it is to know if the user is admin. I haven’t verify it. And I tried to make clear that username was a guess.
