They are still acting on it, seems.

I didn't want to say it, because I wanted to believe :(
That's fair. I shouldn't have said "replace reddit."
mastodon.world seems okay, but whos to say where the silos are between that and lemmy.world.
TBF modern browsers are remarkably secure from being a vector to pwn your computer these days.
EDIT: I don't endorse hanging out on a compromised lemmy.world. Focus on the implication for the bigger lemmyverse though. A hack coming through to you is unlikely.
All the bean memes are in danger! On a serious note, old-skool or not, it's a huge loss of trust in something the community-at-large is excited to see replace reddit.
I wouldn't assume reasons why or that it's fixed until that consensus has been more widely reached.
Right advertising != spam. IMO the community should get to decide if it allows any kind of advertising. Unsolicited, selective, none, whatever. Reports to admin should only be when it's clearly mass spamming.
I don't know if you're trying to be funny or not but that is pretty funny. Those poor reporters thinking "how convenient! they obviously know what is wrong because it's right here in the list!" But it's there to make it easy to sort into the trash.
I didn't mean YOU are being a dick. If SOMEONE creates “alt” accounts for the sole purpose of vote manipulation, they're being a dick. I was using the royal "you," a weird english language thing. You, yourself, are not a dick. We'll you might be, but I don't think so.
