No, that was a hack the other night. An XSS vulnerability in Lemmy was found.

Thanks but what I’m referring to happened a few minutes ago

It’s probably just your browser still having the page cached when the “hack” happened, because I don’t see any new reports and the attack vector was patched. You can click Ctrl+R or Ctrl+F5 to force reload the page to remove the cache.
