Hi,

Where should I report problematic federated instances? I’ve seen an influx of trash/spam/advertising appearing in my “All” feed. I’d love to report them to admins so they can determine if they’re offending or not.

If I use the report button on a post, does it go to admins of lemmy world or to moderators of that particular community?

    I did block the communities, but they were 70+ and took like an hour of my time. I guess blocking the user would’ve been faster, but hey, you learn something every day.

      I don’t know if you use iOS. But I just found out the Memmy app has a filter instance option. I don’t know if it works, but maybe you can give it a try.

      If you use Android maybe hit up your favourite developer with a feature request? Seems like the fastest option atm.

        I am on iOS using Voyager. I will definitely make the feature request, but it still makes sense to report it to admins when applicable to improve the experience for everyone.
