Are you referring to China? Because that would be an exceptionally bad example.
I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in Linux, FOSS, and several other subjects.

There have been several cases of the default OS installation being infected with malware. I would recommend always wiping the drive and installing your own OS. Firmware is less likely to contain malware targeted at individuals (or anyone else that is irrelevant to APT’s), but it might be outdated and have unpatched vulnerabilities.
They probably don’t have enough training data yet
It’s also a lot easier to do so with Rust because you can easily statically compile it with the musl target so you don’t even rely on the system’s libc version.
Of course not, but then there’s not really a point to using another Pi instead of your main machine, right?
The Raspberry Pi Zero has a 32-bit CPU, the newer big RPI’s have 64-bit CPU’s. Wouldn’t that cause problems?
Just like how people should use long unique passwords
A lot of cryptowallets let the user log in with a randomly generated combination of words. They often ask the user to write those down on paper. However, some people just screenshot that. This malware looks for those combinations specifically.

I think that only applies once you’ve actually submitted a GDPR deletion request, not when you use a tool to edit comments.

We can ask and maybe get their first comment in the process. !rosschie@lemdro.id
I’ve checked and they posted an article from “ibtimes” 26 (!!) times

Some further analysis shows that all 3 are using the same name server provider (AWS) and have the same registrant name (a company called PERFECT PRIVACY, LLC). Techtimes and HNGN are also both hosted at Google Cloud, but ibtimes is hosted at AWS. Making it seem like the account is attempting to increase backlinks to their sites. But it could also just be a coincidence of course.
Edit 2024-08-16: They posted another article from IBNTIMES.
Lemmy.world has kept open signups open during every large Reddit exodus while many others didn’t. It’s also decently reliable, has decent moderation and is well known. The reason why people didn’t move after is probably because instance migration on Lemmy isn’t possible* so they just stick with what they use.
*Yes I don’t consider exporting/importing followed communities a migration
It certainly feels like one
