Since I’ve begun “trying” in the kitchen, I eat way healthier than ever before, and most of my meals are better and cheaper than restaurant equivalents.


This is my fear. A huge wave of newbs (myself included) all out here trying to figure it out. I feels like a hacker playground.

Does DEFCON have a fediverse hacking competition this year?



If you want to see Beehaw you need a separate account as far as I know since they defederated.


This is great, and would make for a super useful Firefox extension.


Like I said… Most likely legit, but these issues will arise. This whole Fediverse thing feels like the first big thing to happen for whatever comes next. Which is great, but it would be foolish to think scammers, with modern tools wont try to exploit it. We all have some internet hygiene to figure out.


What are the cybersecurity weaknesses of the Fediverse?
Most of us are Reddit refugees, and probably clicking more random links than we ever did before on websites we've never seen before. This whole experience feels like the old internet, but also throws up insane red flags with a modern internet perspective. What are the cybersecurity weaknesses we should all be looking for, and what are the best practices? Here's my reason for posting this. As I search for new communities across instances to follow, I sometimes end up clicking a link and I'm no longer logged in. In the corner, that could be a Sign In link or it could be phishing. It's likely due to me not understanding how to properly navigate this system, but there's nothing stopping someone from setting up a sight like this as far as I know. Thoughts?
