IMPORTANT NOTE:

It's come to my attention that some people have been spamming issue trackers with a link to this gist. While it's a good idea to inform people of the situation in principle, please do not do this.

Update 3 (May 24, 2021)

A number of things have happened since the last update.

Today, on the 27th of March 2021, The Coding Den was subjected to a social engineering attack that lead to a brief hostile takeover of the server before the situation was brought under control by staff. We are sharing this statement as a public service announcement on the methodology used in the scam and possible remediations to prevent it, in order to help other staff teams avoid becoming victims of it.

Methodology

The attack proliferates as follows:

The attacker will look for a staff member who is presently offline. This will ensure that it appears as if the staff member's account was globally banned and forcefully booted offline.
It is within the attacker's interest to choose a target with the highest possible privileges (to do the maximum amount of damage), meaning that they will likely prefer administrators over moderators and so forth.
The attacker will create a new Discord account with the same name and profile picture as the target.
The attacker will approach a staff member, claiming

Linux Desktop on Apple Silicon in Practice

Fortunately, Linux already works on Apple Silicon/M1. But how practical is it?

Two native ports exist.
