Be alert, Please do not launch a new tab of Lemmy.World. Having tabs already open with this site is fine but as soon as you do you will be bombarded with awful content with malicious intent to cause shock, disgust and distress.
In the meantime use alternative instances, other instances are not affected by this compromise. Do not open any links/posts from the user MichelleG.
Thanks for reading, please stay safe out there Lemmy users!
Update: Lemmy World is under attack again.
I’m checking on mobile web browser atm, everything seems fine.
Things are slowly getting restored, the mod that was compromised has been removed. Hopefully nothing more happens. I’ll unpin this post as soon as I am 100% sure on that though.
Thanks for helping take care of it, that was a pretty quick response from you guys. I’m betting the talk for the next day is gonna be all about 2FA. lol
