FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites.

Maybe the admin got hacked?


edit: lemmy.blahaj.zone has also been hacked. beehaw.org is also down, possibly intentionally by their admins until the issue is fixed.

I really hope they have backups in place.

I was once doing work at a company that provided tech support and security for local businesses. There were a couple big instances of the companies being hacked with ransomware etc. On every occasion, we of course ask, "when was your last backup done?" And without fail, every one of them always responded, "backup?"

Oof. Oh well, at least they’re getting recognized I guess.

I decided to check it and it tells me that 'The site has been seized by Reddit for copyright infringement'.
