So, I started blocking accounts that don’t engage with the stuff I post and just make personal attacks. After blocking these handful of accounts all the harassment stopped entirely. Vast majority of people on the lemmyverse are across different instances aren’t attacking other people. There are just a handful of really active trolls out there, and I think the best policy might be to just start blocking them when we see them.
I have noticed that when multiple accounts are involved they are, more often than not, from the same instance. I have noticed it mostly from the lemmy.ee instance aso I just assumed that was one of the instances the feds just keep spare accounts to use when needed.
yeah I noticed that as well
