Unsurprisingly, some folks on raddle and reddit seem to have a big problem with lemmy. A lot of it is pure FUD.

However, this appears to be a valid security concern:

Any thoughts on how fixable this is?

Of course the general consensus on reddit is “lemmy devs are clueless and dangerous”. I’m pretty sure a lot of it is one guy with multiple alt accounts, tho. He has a Joe McCarthy attitude about lemmy because of one of the primary devs.

    Thanks. Not a fan of guilt by association of this type. The idea of FUD has been around for decades. It’s not inherently crypto or inherently anything. It’s just a useful acronym for a tactic some people use.
