Why YSK: It appears several Lemmy Instances are flagged as suspicious and at least 1 instance intentionally using the name of ransomware. A couple of the big enterprise monitoring suites (Fortiguard, ZScaler) will flag your account and may end up with you being pulled into an office for an explanation, or worse.
TL;DR: Keep browsing to your local instance at work for now.
When I read stuff like this, I feel there is a whole part of Lemmy that I am totally clueless about.
I have no idea even where the areas that OP is talking about even exist, and with the way the servers seem to go down all the time or I need to reload a browser, it makes it that much more difficult to wander around and get to know the place because you never know if a certain page is empty because its really empty or it just didn’t load correctly.
