Lemmy instances are being compromised by a js injection
lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone are down from what seems like a JavaScript injection attack
I think we should slightly rethink how login works on most Fediverse apps (Mastodon, Lemmy, but not only) ( kbin.social )

I realized that there are alot of inactive communities across the Lemmy and kbin instances. The beauty of decentralization is that we don't rely on a central instance, if a fediverse instance becomes the central one that hosts the majority of posts, then if that instance goes down, we lose alot. I also suggest posting to small...

how do I add communities like [email protected] to my feed on kbin? I copy and paste the name as i have it here into the search bar on kbin but nothing comes up. ( kbin.social )
