The website icon has changed, name changed to Israel, and the site title now includes a slur.
Anyone, if you know anything, please let the rest of us know.
edit: Most things seem to be okay now.
Edit 2: we are under attack again.

It really wouldn’t hurt to have admins in different timezones as right now this hack could have been much worse, imagine everything gets deleted and the site redirects to CP, the reputation gets immediately destroyed.
The hackers however knew what they were doing, they seem to know Lemmy well enough and it’s curious that they targeted lemmy.world despite it being popular only among people already a bit familiar with Lemmy and the Fediverse. Other people would usually look at join-lemmy and lemmy.ml first.
As frustrating as that would be, it wouldn’t be permanent I know they’re very serious with backups. A roll back is annoying but not really that damaging.
