    Looks like it’s gonna be a bit really put a lid on this, but I guess another sign why this is a good system?

    I am glad I’m on programming.dev for lemmy, but this could’ve happened to anyone. Hope nothing catastrophic happens

    And this is why you use a password manager whenever you make new accounts on the internet.

    If you had an account on the Lemmy.world website you need to change your password.

    Yeah… I caught all that. Glad to see that they fixed it already though. Rough day for Rudd.

      I don’t think you realize what happened. The entire instance got fucked, it wasn’t just some posts someone didn’t like.

    It’s still compromised, right now it’s showing text that says site seized by reddit for copyright infringement. Lol. Jerboa is just showing Lemmy World heads

    Is there a way to not do email verification but still using 2FA? That way, even if a user’s account is somehow phished/compromised, it won’t compromise their other accounts.

      Absolutely you can do no phone/email and MFA. It’s a TOTP thing like Google or Microsoft authenticator. The service doing the authentication has no idea how it’s done on the other side, it just makes sure the codes match.

      I just successfully set up 2FA for an account on another instance that doesn’t have a verified email without any issues, so there’s no need to have done email verification to use 2FA.

    The page redirects is named Israel and it redirects to blank page with “This site was seized by Reddit for copyright infringement”. So no, they don’t have control yet.
