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.

Mostly a risk on initial setup.

I’ve been waiting a bit for it to stabilize and just using huge random passwords

If you're using a password manager you'd be doing this for every site and without even having to think about it. Bitwarden is a great choice.

I like KeePass. Bitwarden currently has an nginx exposure in the Dockerfile published in their git repo (may have been fixed since a couple of days ago). That said, I used Bitwarden for many years and switched out of an abundance of paranoia, and am definitively not recommending against it. Just basically use one of the following:

  • Bitwarden
  • KeePass
  • 1password

And stay far the fuck away from LastPass
