PC player complaining about the cost of a PlayStation is new to me. Isn’t it normally the other way around? Isn’t a PS5 about as expensive as a decent GPU alone?

Hey man save some memes for the rest of us

You gotta spread these out a bit, also don’t forget to stay hydrated

I love it when the "come to my free speech zone!" pitch reaches the point where a total lack of self-awareness is put on display

I really hope the mods here let you keep digging

Are you saying we’re going to adapt to service the Borg?

All night, if needed?

I'm guessing it was a different instance because we don't have any powermods. (I actually didn't realize Lemmy already has powermods, sheesh!) Most of us just mod one community on our instance and I don't think any of us are modding on other instances.

Regardless, I'll keep an eye out for anything fishy.

Title from Night Crew in case you haven't seen it

That's disheartening to hear. Can you share any more detail? If we've got a mod causing drama somewhere I can take it up with our admins.

And we're updated! Thank you for your advice, we really appreciate it.

Ahh, ok. That's helpful, thanks!

This is going to seem silly in the context of such a severe exploit but one quirk about our instance is that we literally do not have a "general discussion" /c/. The biggest one is scoped to Star Trek and so a Lemmy exploit is obviously outside the scope of ... Star Trek. I would wager that's the main reason the mod removed the post, but I will admit that just pointing this out, I feel like the forum mod from the short story Wikihistory.

I'm in contact with the admins who manage the hosting, they are coordinating an update 0.18.2-rc1 as we speak. Also, there's already been some discussion about setting up a general discussion /c/ on our instance and so I'll include instance security in the scope of that /c/.

You mentioned elsewhere in this thread there is a Lemmy admins Matrix room. Is my instance big enough for my admins to be invited? If yes, who can I point them at to get in?

This issue is already quite widely publicized and quite frankly “we’re handling it and removing this” is a much more harmful response than I would hope to see.

Hi, mod of a community on the instance in question here. Why is this response harmful? What should we have done instead?
