Join the session chat!
Hello everyone, I have created a session chat group so we can chat anonymously and privately. Session groups are limited to 100 members so if we get close to that limit I will host our own session community, which has no limit on members.
Session Chat ID:

What kind of guides do you want to see?
I would like to start creating some basic guides on topics I am skilled in. Some examples are a broad, high level overview of OSINT and how to do it. SSRF, SQLMap, leveraging AI for hacking, password cracking(Hashcat), and a number of other topics. Is there any interest in these or are there specific topics you all would like a guide / walkthrough/ cheats sheet for? If any of you want to create a guide for anything feel free to do so. Once I get the wiki up and running the best guides will be placed in the wiki.

Hello everyone!
Hello everyone and welcome to the lemmy.world hacking community! Anything related to hacking is allowed here. but be careful what you say on lemmy. Lemmy is not private and tools already exist to try and identify lemmy users. With that being said I will create a signal group and a session chat group if the community is interested in that. If there is anything at all I can help you with, please don't hesitate to ask. I will try and have the basic tool repo online by next weekend and then I will open it up to others so we can edit it as a community.
