Lemmy.world instance under attack right now. It was previously redirecting to ๐Ÿ‹ ๐ŸŽ‰ and the title and side bar changed to antisemitic trash.

They supposedly attributed it to a hacked admin account and was corrected. But the instance is still showing as defaced and now the page just shows it was โ€œseized by redditโ€.

Seems like there is much more going on right now and the attackers have much more than a single admin account.

Lemon party... Truly the fediverse is bringing us back to the golden age of the internet.

I thought I had forgotten about it all. Now they're all back. I can even hear the piano from 2g1c slowly playing out. Help.
