There seems to be a few waves of users created just to post spam specifically in kbin. It’s quite strange as the posts are so obvious and they keep getting downvoted. I’m also blocking the users but I can’t see a way to report them. Is there a better way to handle this situation?

    There’s no one at the rudder for the moment it seems. At kbin that is. I fear most people are going to be leaving over this sooner than later…

      I know the admin here recently had a minor surgery. I’m hoping for some kind of solution for when normal life stuff keeps him away. Like a few people just in charge of getting rid of spammers and worse people.

      I will be registering elsewhere to see if the experience is any better. I really like the overall direction and design of kbin, but things have been dragging on updates and improvements.

      For example, my settings are identical as far as I can tell between desktop and mobile, but my mobile feed is generally hitting day old on the first page while desktop has several pages of more recent content. I walked through the settings side by side and they appear identical.

      But I haven’t reported it or searched to see if someone else has because of the absence making the effort to document and report less urgent.

      I’ll keep my account of course and keep an eye out if it picks back up because do like the browser based interface and the combo of lemmy and mastodon in a single feed.

      I was guessing that could be the issue, but even if there’s little moderation I still wanted to know the best way to report :)
