I would be cautious about viewing any Lemmy.world communities right now, and the Beehaw admins should make sure their credentials are locked down in case they get targeted next.

    No user data like credentials gets transfered. Everything between instances is done with bot like helpers that do the data transfers.

        That would require your device to get hacked, not just the server.

        As for privacy… there is really little of that on Lemmy or the fediverse as a whole.
