  • That in itself isn’t rule breaking, just annoying, but the instance has communities which are sort of like travel agency bs, with straight up ads for hotels, plane tickets, and other services. I think they must’ve made like 300 posts in two or three hours, so they completely took over the feed.

    Wouh, that’s annoying for sure and to me sounds like spam!

    So thankful to have the option to both block users and communities. Makes the experience a lot smoother!

    I thought of a reason why someone might want to post any issues publicly here in !support instead of doing a report and that is if it is something that is not clearly breaking any rules and a users feels that this might warrant input from others, or a issue that might lead to a bit of back and forth and one wants to be able to expand on reasoning etc. Obviously at the end of the day the final say is with the lemmy.world admins and mods, so we all have to adhere to that while here. But yeah, that came to mind as a reason against reporting a post so wanted to mention it.


  • You could just report a post from a user of the instance you think should be blocked. Just remember to write a reasoning for the report. To me this seems like the fastest option.

    Reports go to your instance admins.

    Or you can write a post here in [email protected]

    Correction: Reports go to the mod of the community where the post is located. To get server wide block of another instance then reaching out here in !support should be the way.

    Just a sidenote for anyone not aware that the rules that applies at Lemmy.world can be found through the side bar. So read through them and always report posts that you think violates these.
