instead of other servers?
The fact that when people started joining about a week ago or so, lemmy.ml
was at the top of the recommendations in join-lemmy, the fact that it had in its description that lemmy.ml is ran by the developers of lemmy and the jerboa app so people assumed this is the correct one and lastly, unfortunately during that time the only alternative instances at the top of the recommendations was lemmygrad
and I don’t remember the other one that screamed communism so people flocked to other ones.
It’s not uncommon apparently.
It’s happened to me twice so far.. I supposed, the more strain on the server the more it shits the bed on this, but it is a security issue and needs to be resolved.
When it happened, I decoded the
JWT
and it wasn’t different than my regular one. It still had my ownsubid
as I usually have but for some reason, it shows me someone else’s username.
