So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

Really? I had my reddit account for 10 years, I dont think a single person remembers/recognizes my "identity". With smaller communities people actually knew eachother. Your name actually meant something.

I think what your_mind_aches is saying is that the mindset has changed. People who didn't know the internet before social media are more emotionally attached to having one single identity online. Even if in the case of reddit it's not necessarily linked to your real world identity.

Sometimes when I am unsure about a post/comment I click on the user profile and if I see 10yrs / 100K karma, it helps forms my opinion and trust of the user.

And that's how you end up cutting off your toes because Gallowboob said so.

Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time .

I blocked them on Reddit as soon as I learned you could block people and I guarantee if they come to Lemmy they'll be the first people I block here.

I'm using they/them not for gender reasons but because there's no chance it was just one person running that account. Either multiple people or someone in tandem with a bot. And bots are people.

Yeah blocking the superusers on Reddit is the only way I can use it. It's insane how much a small amount of people will make up all the posts on /r/all
