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
I don’t think there’s any risk of someone stealing your kbin account with this, however I do think that admins can access more data than normal users, including from federated instances. They where only logged in on the web, and I think you can only access that kind of data by accessing the database more directly, which the exploit wouldn’t have allowed the hackers to do.
