Shit, lemmy world got hacked, click on that Israel will lead you to explicit picture of a bunch of naked old man sucking each other, and also pop’s up lead to porn site.
Avoid at all cost.
this is bad. rumour has it this is due to an admin’s json web token being leaked.
so I would advise all admins here not to log into 3rd party web apps (mobile apps should be okay) with their admin accounts, as the web apps usually proxy your requests (hence, they have your token), and they proxy not due to nefarious purposes, but due to some problem with cors (in other words, being forced to proxy your request isn’t really their fault, and once the cors problem is fixed in the lemmy backend, they can stop doing that).

The linked comment suggests that the entire Lemmy platform is currently vulnerable to the cookie stealing exploit that already happened to several instances.
Now, if only we have automod that could detect code injection in markdown links and tempban offenders…
Goddammit. The fediverse drama continues.
Btw admins it’s best that we defederate for the time being.
looks like today’s theme for me is search engines, already found:
- https://search-lemmy.com/ for searching lemmy
- https://searchengine.party/ for the usual web search engines
you might like marginalia search as well!
hi, welcome to our humble community.
just curious, how did you find my post? was it through the lemmy search engine?
Downloaded a mobile version and now it sits next to my Reddit.
Also tried Threads. Immediately got a bunch of Muslim accounts on For You. I don’t follow any on Instagram neither am I Muslim.
Will wait till my feed stabilizes back to my usual diet of left wing shitposts and music memes.
You are lucky. I got half naked thirsty bros
