How did it happen and what does this mean for me as a user of lemmy.ml who also follows people on lemmy.world?
One of the admin accounts appears to have been compromised. The owner/other admins appear to be aware now because that account had its admin access revoked and offending posts are being removed.
Definitely opens up a big question about the security of Lemmy instances that I am sure will be discussed over the next few days.
Thanks for the context
