    Instances running 18.2 should be fine, and as far as I understand it (with no dev qualifications to speak of, fwiw), these exploits only affected the local instance - they weren’t permeating through other instances viewing the exploits through Activitypub. That’s all to say, as long as your instance is running 18.2 or higher (the 18.2-rc’s should have in progress patches, as well), I believe you should be fine.

      Shit, it doesn’t look like lemmy.world (my home instance) is running 18.2 yet, according to the bottom of the window. Is that correct?

        Doesn’t seem like it. I actually just made this account due to their subpar response to all this, and they don’t seem to be doing much to change that so far.
