Avatar is a lemming in bed because this account wasn’t intended to be used except for creating communities… and then my instance announced it was closing.

  • I don’t think it’s the same thing? Fedigrow is discussing how to grow, whereas this one is for posting communities and asking for people to post in them (to help them grow). Similar, but not the same. I think if fedigrow was inundated with “please post in xxxx community” that would be annoying, whereas here it’s expected.




  • Looks like that was just credential stuffing, though, not an actual vulnerability. Unique passwords and 2FA are enough to stop your account being compromised. They’ve been good enough to refund anything spent as a result of this. There have been far worse breaches and less reasonable companies, although I understand any concern after this sort of thing is reported.
