It looks like lemmy.world had been hacked.
The instance has been defaced, the site is only intermittently accessible, sometimes it redirects to a random video or other nasty URLs
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LOG INTO LEMMY.WORLD UNTIL THIS IS CLEARED UP AND OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS ARE MADE BY ITS ADMIN.
My recommendation is to stay away entirely for the time being and monitor other large instances for updates.
Edit: Please refer to https://lemmy.ml/post/1895271 or https://lemdit.com/post/44993 for further updates.

Oh man this sucks. Hopefully it doesn’t deter people from here. I was excited it might be a cool place to use if more users and they actually stay
