When I started using Lemmy I joined Lemmy.world and downloaded several Lemmy apps, to find one I liked. After a short while, the apps seemingly became incompatible with Lemmy.world and refuse to display the communities I’d joined, or show any content on the main page of the app if I selected Subscribed rather than Local or...
Recently lemmy.world and other big lemmy instances were compromised - attackers used an exploit to steal admin JWTs (json web tokens), and started changing settings and posting as admins. JWT is created when you log in, and is passed during all interactions to prove who you are.
To recover from the compromise, lemmy.world invalidated all the existing tokens and forced everyone to log in again. Unfortunately lemmy.world stopped trusting valid JWTs too, and apps all had some crazy behavior.
This was resolved as of Wednesday some time, I think.
My advice is to make sure your apps are all updated, and log out / back in to each of them. If it’s not resolved for you, try deleting and reinstalling the apps. If it’s still not resolved, search for a lemmy support community as another poster suggested.
The last top-40’s song I memorized after listening to it so many times was Mr Big, be with you. A basic unrequited love song without much depth. I was 14.
It was around that time that my neighbor introduced me to Nine Inch Nails,and changed the course of my musical taste forever.
For a long time I was very focused on just industrial, grunge, ska, and electronic. I eventually started expanding into prog-like music from across genres (complex melodies and instrumentation, but not just rock, ie newgrass, IDM).
Eventually I met my now-wife and, while she already shared much of my taste spectrum, she also listened to pop charting stuff, and over the years I opened back up to it. Some of its not bad if you give it a chance. Bruno Mars is a legend!
Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I’m done dealing with passwords....
It’s been a long time since I switched to 1Password, but I used to use keepass. I’m not sure whether keepass has a browser extension, but otherwise (if I recall) it checks your other boxes.
1Password is great, even though it’s not open source, and you get to a spot in life where $3/mo is feasible.
What are Lemmy’s feelings about the best cloud storage options these days, if you really want to break into the 1-2TB range? I’m not there yet, probably not even halfway there, but I like the peace of mind of potentially having the space if I need it. And I think subscribing to something in the Netflix price range is maybe...
I use resilio, which is a peer to peer storage based on BitTorrent. I don’t remember syncthing’s base protocol, but it sounds like it meets the same goals.
Resilio offers apps for my phone, NAS, Mac, pc, etc. For my phone I use selective sync for a few key folders instead of the whole thing.
These don’t get me location redundancy unless I tuck another device offsite. Most people don’t have 2 secure enough locations for this.
