FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites.

Maybe the admin got hacked?

edit: lemmy.blahaj.zone has also been hacked. beehaw.org is also down, possibly intentionally by their admins until the issue is fixed.

my uni is currently still recommending lastpass as of now, tho I’ve heard they might be looking for alternatives …

LastPass has had a few security incidents lately. I do not trust them at all.

This was not the first and it won't be the last. They've had issues going as far back as 2015. Don't keep your credentials with a paid platform. Use something you can fully audit and control yourself like Bitwarden or KeePass
