Today I just noticed, after trying to convert a reddit link (from this sub!), that teddit is no longer working.
We all knew this was coming. Even so...
Sharing this as I thought some of the comments are interesting

Other than your carrier give it for free or cheap, I don't really see the reason why should you buy new phone. I've been using Redmi Note 9 for past 3 years and recently got my had on Poco F5. I don't see the point of my 'upgrade'. I sold it and come back to my Note 9. Gaming? Most of them are p2w or microtransaction garbage or just gimped version of its PC/Console counterpart. I mean, $400 still get you PS4, TV and Switch if you don't mind buying used. At least here where I live. Storage? Dude, newer phone wont even let you have SD Card. Features? Well, all I see is newer phones take more features than it adds. Headphone jack, more ads, and repairability are to name a few. Battery? Just replace them. However, my Note 9 still get through day with one 80% charge in the dawn. Which takes 1 hour.
I am genuinely curious why newer phone always selling like hot cakes. Since there's virtually no difference between 4gb of RAM and 12gb of RAM, or 12mp camera and 100mp camera on phone.

While I was asleep, apparently the site was hacked. Luckily, (big) part of the lemmy.world team is in US, and some early birds in EU also helped mitigate this. As I am told, this was the issue: - There is an vulnerability which was exploited - Several people had their JWT cookies leaked, including at least one admin - Attackers started changing site settings and posting fake announcements etc Our mitigations: - We removed the vulnerability - Deleted all comments and private messages that contained the exploit - Rotated JWT secret which invalidated all existing cookies The vulnerability will be fixed by the Lemmy devs. Because not all instances are aware, we will not go into detail on the vulnerability yet. Many thanks for all that helped, and sorry for any inconvenience caused! Update While we believe the admins accounts were what they were after, it could be that other users accounts were compromised. Your cookie could have been ‘stolen’ and the hacker could have had access to your account, creating posts and comments under your name, and accessing/changing your settings (which shows your e-mail). For this, you would have had to be using lemmy.world at that time, and load a page that had the vulnerability in it.
