New spam wave? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

There seems to be a wave of accounts from this instance spamming/brigading comments everywhere. I know one of them @[email protected] has been spamming already. But now there is another spamming pictures of checks notes nikocado avocado's anus everywhere. [email protected] (check profile and comment history at your own risk). Somebody seems to be raiding this instance and many others through different accounts so i just wanted to warn you all.

Makes sense

The spam bot accounts are posting some terrible stuff, everywhere, incredibly fast

I'd hate to be a mod today with all the crap that they're posting

Surprises me that Lemmy doesn't have such moderation tools yet, considering how much longer it exist compared to kbin.

Just a simple throttle on the number of posts an account can make (especially a new one) would help.

that exists, just has a relatively high default

Well that's odd - if you are posting faster than once per minute (for example) then you are likely up to no good. Set much higher than that and it's a pointless feature.
