I was trying to work out why it is that when I receive a notification and I click “view context” nothing happens if the msg came from lemmy.world. The screen blinks for a second but gives no prior posts. Well after digging into this, I see that #lemmyWorld has just recently joined the exclusive #walledGarden of Cloudflare.
I think I don’t want users of Cloudflared instances to see my posts because it invites broken interactions. Is there any way to block CF instances at the individual account level?
If that’s true then why are there reports of the attack bringing them down on July 15th?
That was a lemmy exploit that someone gained admin credentials through the cookies. Quite a few lemmy servers were targeted, but many were able to patch quickly once it was reported through lemmy.world.
