Most of those are reposted by the same account. You just need to ban a few accounts and the feed is clean again.
Oh yeah, im no stranger to blocking users and entire communities on this platform….there’s just usually the initial wave of whatever the new spam is until i can get my feed cleaned up again.
Step 1: block archiebot
Step 2: enjoy about 75% reduced spam
it's so easy to create these types of accounts and flood them with low-effort AI slop that blocking one or two accounts never did it for me. regardless of the platform (tiktok, facebook, instagram, any other social media, including some of your revered FOSS platforms) it's easy to bypass humanity filters with very little effort and fill the account with garbage. all of these platforms behave the same way: if outside accounts engage with it, it becomes more valuable. that's why there are so many of these, and why "just banning" a few of them won't solve it
