Anonymous accounts joining my private board
in progress
Leemon_
I’ve been having this on going issue for weeks now. I do not give out links to my board to anyone yet multiple anonymous accounts are somehow getting into my canvas both while I’m on and offline. The worst part is that all of the canvases that have been getting into are commissioned works. If they’re not bots, theyre able to steal both my art work and the references I have on my canvas. If they are bots, the moderation is failing us. Either way this has been stressing me out and making drawing on this platform completely impossible. I really don’t want to have to change platforms but this is ridiculous

The problem still exists in August despite fixes.
I am able to reproduce such an anonymous user by locating to my canvas from an incognito tab using the canvas link. Could at least some of these anonymous users be caused by a delay or issue with magma syncing the user’s login status? The user is shown as anonymous on their own board for a short time while the platform checks their login status and connects the session to their account.
Anyway, until the issue is well understood and fixed, I think it would be good to inform the users that private canvases may in fact not be private despite them not sharing the link.

We pushed some fixes that should hopefully address the issue for new drawings. Let us know if it still happens.

Random accounts appearing on my private canvases without link or invite
♥ 𝙺𝚊𝚢𝚕𝚊𝙳𝚘𝚎𝚜𝙰𝚛𝚝♥
i (and whoever else has access to my canvases) get notifications of people joining/making changes to my canvases and when i join the canvas there is no one there, but it does show that a different account has been on there. when i clicked on said account it said that they were created the day that they joined the canvas, 0 following/followers, 0 posts, etc. the pfps are usually a stock picture that you get automatically when you join magma, like a shark, chick, or cat. their display name is "Anonymous" and username "@user-" with random letters and numbers after the dash.
im not entirely sure if this is a bug, hacker, or just lag, but its really creepy, especially when everyone that has access to the canvas (via invite/link) is on and someone just appears.

Anonymous Accounts Join Board, not dont have any known service

Hello, Ive been getting anonymous users joining my private board/link not shared to anyone as well, and they have been concerning me as I saw that it could be from malware/bots. I do not have/know any of the services like PMService or PremierOpinion. The users started to appear last month, and previously I do not recall having this issue.
They have the default stock photos (horse, cow, etc.) created accounts on the day of joining my canvas, and have usernames mega-hana-z19 and flux-otter-rnj (these are usernames that have joined my canvas). I was wondering if there is anything I can do or receive confirmation that it is either a bug or truly bots! Thank you so much.

I see "Anonymous" users inside of my drawings
— lumen —
Recently, it shows some users named Anonymous have entered my drawings without me sharing it to anyone! They all have similar usernames, but I'm concerned if something is wrong, or if this is just a bug? (All of the accounts are typically created on the day that they "joined" the drawing.)
