@lemmy.caSo, simply viewing a comment thread with a maliciously-altered emoji (on an unpatched instance) was enough to compromise your account?
The encoded string contains the URL zelensky dot zip
. Zip is one of the newer top-level domains. It itself is not a zip file, but I am not going to visit that site to find out whatever treasures it has to offer..
Last I saw, they were on 0.18.1, unless a very recent update was installed. Do you happen to have a full list of domains they were redirecting to? Just want to be sure they were only going to "harmless" offensive sites, and not something worse.
Really hoping it's "only" redirecting to offensive sites, and not to malware. I got redirected a few times, before I closed my browser.
If any other device on your network, such as your phone, exclusively uses pihole for DNS, they won't be able to resolve web addresses when your computer is off - effectively cutting off internet access. Pihole should really be running 24/7 to avoid complications.
Hello, I commented about a bug in the instance selector on a cross post, not realizing that wasn't the actual developer. Not sure if it's related to what you're talking about here, but I wanted to bring it to your attention. Great project by the way!
WTF, the activity button is also on comments. So you can literally see a full list of users who upvoted or downvoted you.
I'm guessing it was done for transparency, but it just seems ripe for abuse. People can take things like downvotes way too seriously. I've seen unhinged users on Reddit go harassing a commenter who disagreed with them.
I do not like this "feature".
