RE: https://writing.exchange/@writefreely/116937920745292055 Most importantly, this fixes an issue where malicious actors can create accounts on closed-registration #WriteFreely instances running the previous v0.16 or below. We've heard reports of this ACTIVELY being exploited today across many WriteFreely instances -- multi- and single-user. We advise ALL WriteFreely admins to upgrade immediately. You may also notice many unwanted accounts on your instance that need to be manually cleaned up. We'll be adding admin tools to make this quicker soon.

@davepolaschek@writing.exchange Yeah, sorry I lost track of this because it turns out the fix you gave me feedback on ended up breaking in other browsers. So might see if I can still use that.

Sorry again for the delay on a fix
