Recently one of the posts I made got a porn spam comment and I also saw a lot of porn spam in my instance’s communites. Also just now I got an abusive DM telling me to kill myself and accusing me of being an astroturfer.
Has anyone else experienced anything like that lately or is it just me?
Today sure has one with a tool bag posing anti trans stuff and non tagged nsfw posts.
Not seeing it out here in the .world instance, but then again I’m not engaging with trans, autism, or furry communities as much as I think that you are. Sounds as though you’ve caught a homophobe troll’s attention, owing to the KYS & astroturfing DM, and false reporting. Bounce this upstairs to your instance’s mods, and let others know who they are.
Nothing since Nicole for me.
Some women wanted to donate me her retirement savings so I open a homeless shelter in Germany but that’s it.
Same. Its been pretty great!
it looks like you’ve been getting targeted for abuse by a feddit.org admin, saying you’re the same person for upvoting the db0 thread about feddit.org being zionist
Wow… that… I have no words for that. That is beyond despicable. I had a feeling things were bad when I saw the governance thread but that’s way way worse than I thought.
Yeah they’re really showing true colors
If you have a bit of time, please collect evidence of when that targeting and harassment happens. I’ve already seen a few accounts using low-quality /c/MoG posts to try and demonize .ml, lemmygrad and hexbear so it’s useful to have a post or posts to point to showing that it’s a harassment circlejerk, not the credible spectators they pretend to be.
The ones that need to hear it will ignore it or just say it’s from ml so can be ignored :(
Exhibit what 200 of why that comm shouldn’t be used by anyone and commentors there are immediately suspicious
Im not sure about the porn spam, but the abusive dm is probably from the Feddit.org admin acussing you of being an astrosurfer lemmy.zip/post/58901499/24578452 @Astertheprince@lemmy.dbzer0.com
No I didn’t, though. There is legitimately someone who has been doing this stuff for at least eight months now and I originally thought it was another antiyanks attack, but other admins told me that transphobia is untypical of antiyanks.
Also if you can link the account, I would gladly ban it at least from Feddit.
That’s quite funny
this is hilarious.
I think this may depend on the instance you’re on. The “trans” spam bot hit up my sister’s account but she’s on fedia/mbin. I haven’t noticed the other abuses per se to be like. Rampant or anything.
But I also don’t check DM’s.
No but maybe you tell me where all this porn spam is active so I can stay away from it.
It came from an instance called chatgptjailbreak.tech. Seems like my instance defederated them.
yeah it was just a joke comment.
No. I blocked all the anime, furry, porn, and any aggressive subs that consistently read like screaming. If that matters, maybe do the same.
Same. A new one sneaks up on me like Aquaman sometimes, but I kill it with fire.
I saw it earlier. Also got spammed by an asshole telling me to kill myself. Lemmy is going to shit these days. I’m thinking about going back to Reddit, or digg. At least they don’t have shit like this there. Spam like this gets squashed quickly there.

lol
Try piefed, one of its main draws is that it has more tools to deal with spam
Thank you, will look into that.
just as an FYI, it looks like you’ve been getting targetted for abuse by a feddit.org admin, saying you’re the same person for upvoting the thread about feddit.org being zionist as
No. I said I had the feeling that the accounts could be associated with each other. Also I never contacted Aster or any of the others in the screenshot. There is a troll trying to get both at me and at other users and trying to fan the flames.
You forgot the /s
sorry
Not spam per se, but there does seem to be a sharp uptick in brand new accounts making tons of posts and getting banned. It seems every day I see numerous posts made by users that are already banned by whatever community they posted in (by the time I see them.) Mods must be working overtime.
Porn spam was coming from someone named Draconic_NEO (I think there is a legit account named @Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com) with many fake account
Active:
Banned:
My legit accounts are as follows:
Yes I know this is excessive and I created many of them either when I was less sure of the Fediverse or because I wanted some activity separation in who I follow or communities I’m part of. And also because of Federation issues as well. I also was kind of hoping Lemmy would have something in the future where accounts like this can be merged into a single nomadic account. I had heard of something like that but I can’t find it now :/
Now that is some enthusiasm for the fediverse.
Thanks for information, sorry for this pathetic person. You didn’t deserve this.
Lemmy instance admins please ban all other @Draconic_NEO @Draconic_NE0 @Draconic_MEO @Draconic_ME0 accounts in you instance
in lemmy.today account bio is
Please give some context about this @Buelldozer@lemmy.today
What’s the relation with this account @Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Disclamer: There is many old account with same name but I just list the new ones
I created it a while back because I thought having the username occupied would prevent this sort of thing from happening. I was more naive back then and didn’t think someone would be pathetic enough to use misspellings and lookalikes to get around that 😔.
What context are you asking for? Seems like Draconic has explained why that account exists and even put in a note explaining.
Nope, haven’t noticed. I do see a lot of spam removed whenever I look at the mod log though. Some level of spam is always to be expected.
I’ve been here for a couple of years now and have never gotten anything like that. I even occasionally ban people (which I can’t imagine they are too happy about). 🤷♂️
Seen two spam comments today.
I have everything sorted by new though and they were gone shortly after reporting.
Oh, they’re 10 and learned reddit terms.

Friend, out of my respect, here there are persons that should be in a hospital. Mental illness.

A sizeable chunk of us were banned from Reddit. I’m convinced some of those bans were justified.

yeah I think that is a big thing people have to keep in mind with the internet. I try my best to love you all but I don’t make decisions with what I “learn” from hanging it out internet spaces. I sometimes laugh at myself when I get to upset by something.
