I’m still not entirely sure how all this magic works but would I be correct to assume it’s only thread data that’s transfered across the fediverse? And because Kbin is Kbin, it shouldn’t have the exploit the Lemmy software has right?

Appologies if this seems stupid - it’s a genuine question

    Just to add, as a user once you logout and login again this will kill the old token and issue a new one. This will stop an attacker who has stolen your token from accessing your account.

    As for impact, it really depends on what data you have in your account. Assuming you are a heavy shitposter and do not store nuclear secrets in your account, the impact should be minimal.

      I wish that was an assumption we could make. How many other remfie nat guardsmen are holding classified shit to post for internet clout?

      How many ex presidents do we have on Knin?
