I was just browsing the main page and opening different posts, any idea why Bitdefender thinks some pages are suspicious?

The first one with the infected, I think it was a post and it had some pictures, didn’t click on anything, just loaded the post.

    Honestly, lots of reasons. Malware links, new sites, it’s a bit of the wild west, I use Jerboa on mobile, with RethinkDNS and Orbot (mobile Android), my logs are an absolute shitfight, with what to block, and what to allow. Give it time, it will settle. New sites (instances) may, or may not be malicious. I do not know what ,if any, protection Lemmy provides against malware. Good luck, we’re all counting on you you

      There are no protections. At most, there are moderators that might remove posts that lead to malicious content, but Lemmy itself doesn’t have any protections.
