PSA for all Misskey admins:
Yesterday's 2024.3.0 update makes it impossible to react on Firefox for iOS because the reaction picker doesn't show (the UI still darkens though).
This does not happen with Safari on iOS and also not on Misskey 2024.2.0 so it seems to be a bug specifically in that combination. #misskey#fediadmin#misskeyadmin#firefox#ios
I'm doing some funny OSINT stuff and... I have found some funny stuff.
I looked him up on Google, Found a Discord report about him with his real email attached.
Looked up his email, and found a post on the ctkpaarr forums (the one he's advertising the discord) of him being currently flamed for this current ongoing incident.
The best part? He bought the script using a PayPal account. With his real name and identity.
He is a real skid. He just bought an off-the-shelf script and decided to piss off a lot of people, even the dude he bought it from with his antics. Bro snitched on himself and his entire community LMEOW
For the sake of my own job, my rep and legal security I'm not gonna tell where exactly I found this, but you guys can find it yourself. Figure it out.
This guy is making me dying out of laughter 💀 Our team @hq is hysterical right now at this horrible opsec.
There's currently an incident involving some kind of Japanese skids who call themselves the "Kuroneko" organization.
They seem to be attempting to commit DDoS attacks on Misskey servers, constantly creating new accounts on compromised instances and spamming advertisements for their hacking services.
Admins who are federating with these compromised servers, while they might not get compromised themselves, may be affected by the sheer amount of traffic volume from their spam.
Admins are advised to #fediblock or temporarily stop sending requests to affected servers for now, if they don't want to get secondhand DoS'd
IMO I never expected them to be Japanese out of all things, kinda funny. They also host VOICEROID and VOICEVOX TTS bots on their Discord apparently. Kinda a weird flex I guess.
#fediadmins are advised to temporarily disable sign-ups for now, or implement some anti-spam measure to limit signups to not get spammed.
Currently they are targeting #misskey and #mastodon, but other #activitypub servers may soon be targeted.
It seems that several fediverse servers (apparently all #Misskey?) are used to register accounts, in order to spam in japanese, advertising dDoS services.
I am now mirroring the old misskey hub pages on my own domain because the new version of misskey hub is missing many translations: http://oldmisskeyhub.x27.one/en/
