Thank you for taking the time to update this :) Hope everything will be sorted out without people being scared. As a layman, was any user data compromised?

I wasn't using webpage, I was only using mobile app (Connect). Could my coockie be also stolen that way or was that only possible on webpage?
Excellent, thanks for the quick response ruud and admins.
I found this in my private messages, when an attack was happening I messaged the guy βare you okβ and he replied back to me with an image of my own messageβ¦ I wonder if this was similar to what was done here? Was 8 days ago
Had to re-login in the Connect app
TY to everyone itt who commented on how to fix the 3rd party app issues.
I was panicking when liftoff went wonky
A lot of images seems to be gone from posts in /c/pics is this related to the hack or the cleanup after?
What are the risks for people who use Jerboa for Lemmy? I logged put and back in and there doesn't seem to be any issues, so are the app users excluded from this?
Is it possible cookies for other websites were scraped? I was logged in to .world at the time; I have logged out of all accounts, and reset passwords as a precaution, but want to know if I should be on the lookout from this.
Would it be a good idea to force a login if the users IP or device suddenly changes?
Congratulations everyone on the quick fix/mitigation!
Thanks for the info, Ruud. I just put in for a monthly donation to you all -- I appreciate you.
I had an issue of being logged out of my account and could not log back in, after closing and reopening the site, closing browser, etc until I cleared my cookies, then it let me back in. If that helps anyone.
