I would be cautious about viewing any Lemmy.world communities right now, and the Beehaw admins should make sure their credentials are locked down in case they get targeted next.

There IS one major problem. Many accounts only have optional email attached for .world, mine included. I think that means compromised credentials are a massive problem.

If you don't use a unique password which that's on you

I do use a unique password. I just use it for every account.
