Out of precaution we will defederate from lemmy.world until this is resolved.

Edit: Lemmy.world has resolved the issue

This seems unnecessary. The other Admins already removed the offending account as an admin.

Although requiring 2FA, for all admins on your instance seems appropriate. 

Edit: The instance is completely down after they briefly reinstated the compromised Admin's account.

Please disregard my earlier comment. It's a clown-show over there at lemmy.world right now.

Thank you for the heads up that it's fixed.

To my knowledge we all have 2FA enabled. Will confirm.
