Hiw is this fediverse's opsec?

I was derping around and shifted to this instance, and when I was about to immediately ask here as to when other Lemmy instance would wipe all of my previous activity on their instance, i noticed that the Icon changed

cw: racist caption popup

When you hover on it, it shows a racist caption. When you click on it, it shows creepy old men doing each other.

Who has access to this specific instance and why people do this is idk anymore.

Pls ignore this post if it has bene fixed lol

Edit: the thing redirects to you page changed content, either something that shit posty or right wingy/rude/creepy. Someone needs to take a look at this lol

Admin account was hacked. They appear to be working on it:

EDIT: Looks like things are starting to resolve.

EDIT 2: MichelleG account admin was restored and she posted and update but shortly after the changes happened again. Her account is likely still compromised with someone else accessing things via it.

EDIT 3: lemmy.world back online. MichelleG has again been removed as admin. Most things appear to have been cleaned up. Blocked instances still need to be fixed however.
