Maiion: My Accessible Alternatives and Artificial Intelligence Interactions with Its Immense Offerings-Opinions-Objectives Network
Update
According to https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1895#issuecomment-1628318236 and https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/1897, the attack vector afflicting lemmy (dot) world is from the use of custom emojis. MaiionChat does not use and never planned to use custom emojis.
Adding on, another big instance, lemmy (dot) fmhy (dot) ml seems to be down as of writing this. I did not dig around to see if it was voluntary like beehaw (dot) org. Without knowing if malicious intent was involved, I backed up the MaiionChat database onto an encrypted cold storage drive off site as a precautionary measure. Even if malicious intent was not involved, having backups/redundancy is good data practice.
Adding lemmy.blahaj.zone to the temporary block list. After viewing the link, to their site, it seems the admins have taken their site down to investigate.
My instance as well as the other Lemmy and Mastodon instances on this list have blocked Threads.
