The last few posts made here, they’ve shown up, made the most inane, idiotic, and pointless comments, upvoted each other in a frenzy of circle jerking, and generally made a pest of themselves.

They’re a nuisance, and add nothing of value to the Lemmy experience.

I have filtered out a lot of the spammer accounts that just spew nonsense.

On one hand I’m lucky I can do that with sync. But on the other hand we shouldn’t have to resort to whackamole.

I wouldn’t mind if it was a few “bad apples”, but every single fucking one of them are here to start arguments, call people racist, and generally act in the most abrasive manner possible.

What’s the argument there? People shouldn’t have oppositional discussions online? You just want to live in an echo chamber?

One of the saddest things about silicon valley social media products is the way they silo people off and prevent exchange of ideas.

And here on lemmy, reddit users who got used to it silo themselves off willingly.

The issue is, there is no discussion or exchange of ideas happening, just a group of people behaving like seagulls.

It’s really not hard to remember. You’d only think that if you didn’t try to say it once even. Papakanghorohoro or something

There’s plenty of names that are a nightmare to say in other languages, it’s not about the language, it’s that it will be an ongoing headache for the residents of the street.

And frankly, I think their voice is the most important one, because they’re the ones living here.

Oh boy, don’t get me started on kbin. Soooo much spam. About 90% of our spam reports (for actual spam) are for kbin.social posts, and I presume the reports don’t federate to kbin so I just remove it from our view and then it stays on kbin 🙁

Seriously if you have a suggestion I’d love to hear it. There are too many thoughtful kbin participants to consider defederation. But oh boy is the spam annoying.

Please share a list of spammer accounts so we can point and laugh (at you)

That makes no sense?

The app I use has a built in filter. You just add a user to the filter and you don’t see their posts or comments.
