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.

You would think an admin account would have 2fa enabled (unless the hack was due to a security issue in lemmy itself, but it doesn't seem to be the case).
