True that. If you look at posts on lemmy.world though, it's clear their users (which is like 50% of Lemmy) have zero clue they're defederated ATM, and probably many that don't know it's compromised.
They are still acting on it, seems.
I didn't want to say it, because I wanted to believe :(
That's fair. I shouldn't have said "replace reddit."
mastodon.world seems okay, but whos to say where the silos are between that and lemmy.world.

EDIT: I don't endorse hanging out on a compromised lemmy.world. Focus on the implication for the bigger lemmyverse though. A hack coming through to you is unlikely.
