@LMAO is flooding the site with random communities because they're salty about being banned for claiming too many community names. They claim they're trying to "fuck your entire site up" but I imagine it's a relatively quick fix to delete all the communities they're creating, LMAO.
The most annoying thing is that the "Trending Communities" section is filled with spam right now.
I think this does show an ~~inherent~~ current flaw with Lemmy. We need a way to report users through their profile. So far we can only report users when they comment, but this guy isn't commenting anywhere so there's no report button. Unless I'm missing something. :p
@ruud@lemmy.world I'm sure you're tremendously busy already, just want to make sure you're aware of this.
Truly, having some spam text in a box in the corner of the homepage "fucks the entire site up". Truly.
My disappointment is immeasurable and my site is ruined.
time for a purge
This is who weβre leaving behind at Reddit. Salty little baby
This is why we can't have nice things smh. On a positive note, even the douchebags now have abandoned Reddit and think Lemmy is the future.
What a loser, LMAO
A simple captcha for community creation would prevent this
I feel like the little "write why" box that some instances have for account creation would be well fit for this. But for creating communities, or atleast for big instances to keep them from having tons of ghost communities.
