    I came to this community to make a post about this. I am woefully pissed at our admin. I personally guarantee that their inboxes from email, to Mastodon, to the fucking BBS are completely full beyond reason. And it’s so much worse than this little piece of the modlog. Ti my knowledge, everyone that is active on this instance is doing all they can. We desperately need at least a secondary, if not active admin. Thus is embarrassing.

      I reported something pretty bad 8 months ago and it’s still up, I sent another message to the main SDF hosting abuse email today and hopefully they might respond to that. They’ve ignored reports for more than a year, it’s not a new problem.

        That instance is abandoned. There is no one running it. Trolls are now becoming aware of this.

          I’m not sure, it was last updated a couple days ago, so it’s still being maintained. However, it does feel like there is only a sysadmin and nobody actually looks what’s happening on the instance itself.

      Pretty sure your instance was abandoned.

    Star Trek Star Wars, spacey scifi, same bullshit.

    Offending user indeed!

    But seriously this individual is dumping toxins like a Capt Planet villain. I felt gross after scrolling their profile.

      You could probably just post any news story about the ramifications of Trump’s actions. See if the boots will still get licked.

      it’s worse than just that. SDF apparently had zero review process for creating subs and this user is abusing it to spam transphobia and violence. got about 30 reports in before they banned me tho ;3

        Other instances have review processes for new communities? Thought it was an exception not a rule to have? (I don’t make comms haha)

            I’m not gay, but i am arab and the fact he called me an islamist for posting an arabic meme is so funny to me. I’ve been loving fucking with him lmao

                  That’s… obscure, I guess, if I don’t speak Arabic and less funny if I have to read the explanation without knowing the pun, but nowhere near offensive.

    IDK what’s up, but I can’t even find that SayNoToNazis community anymore. The single post on there from a community member had a ton of removed messages when I found it.

    I checked the mod log on my app and it isn’t saying anything about my comment being removed. I had made a comment about how their post invited me to finally look up what their instance is all about and finding one sdf(dot)org, which lead to a rabbit hole as one of their listed members is apparently some Old Line Primitive Baptists group, who seem like a weird religious group to me (not cult like but not normal). Tried replying to a message on my comment, but it wasn’t working. Reloaded the app thinking it’s an issue on my end, and the whole post vanished.

      No SDF is a general purpose instance for anyone interested in Old Tech, Nostalgia, or Linux and Open source in general. It seems this asshole just managed to get in and start posting evil shit. Hopefully they ban his ass from there forever.

        I guess that’s the unfortunate part about how Lemmy handles reports. They seem to go to everyone involved so if you are reporting content a moderator is posting they’ll know.

          Yeah I can’t really say I’m surprised. I’ve known about this for a while now. I’ve asked Lemmy’s Devs about having more granular report control or admin only reports for situations like this but they refuse to listen and instead just go on about shoulds and how community mods should manage their community.

              Oh, that’s good. I apologize for coming off as harsh in that case. I remembered a situation where someone was arguing with me saying that it would be bad or useless since community mods need to run their own communities and shouldn’t be bypassed. Glad to see its being worked on.

            I hope we see some kind of change in line with what you suggested. With each instance and community having different rules most of the time reports are going to be situational.

            If I am correct with the current report configuration if I ran a community with a no memes rule and someone reported someone’s post for being a meme that would get sent to myself but also the admins of both instances for no real reason. It’s only in times of egregious rule violations like the CSAM attacks that hit Lemmy a while ago or threats against a user that I could see reports going everywhere as being useful. Kind of like a panic button.

            I’d also like to see the option to report communities. I don’t think that exists right now and most people are doing it in whatever the meta community is on their instance. I get people might want a discussion before a community is removed or banned but I feel like more often than not it’s just hate speech whack-a-mole where it isn’t really needed.


            I saw nutomic repsonded to your comment by the way. Glad to see it’s being worked on.
