I think that's a good sign. It probably means the problem is being dealt with by admins. Any communities on the affected instances that have subscribers on other instances will be backed up on those other instances, so most of the content is safe no matter what. I just hope the users on those instances know they can come to others in the meantime.
lemmy.blahaj.zone.just went down too
that is really bad because I am one of the moderator for one of the community in that servers. if this spreads out and took longer than expected. I might consider move my community to other servers.
I'd give it at least a day or two to see how things shake out, unless it's really important to you to have that community up all the time.
yeah 48 hours from now is an ideal timeframe. let's see where it goes.
Time to switch instance now, ig.
This seems to be a front-end JavaScript exploit, so theres's a good chance that this is a Lemmy problem, not a Lemmy[dot]world problem. Don't be surprised if the issue starts spreading to other instances.
If I were running a server, I would take it offline until a patch is released (Beehaw did this, to be proactive).
It's not just about that though, there were many communities only on there.
There goes the largest no stupid questions community. Bah. They'll be back in a day or two, I know, but bah.
I'm back baby! I'm back!
You can still access those communities from other instances right?
