    Not only not enough users, but there are certain users on here that are generating constant spam and/or propaganda. That becomes half the feed if you don’t block them.

      Fair enough. But thats also understandable since there’s no single entity moderating. I think we should accept to get wet when showering.

      I‘m pretty sure we can use blocklists for instances that suck like mastodon. Its very easy although masto doesnt do a good job yet to promote blocklists.

        Which means that when more people come in here, there will be more spam and more propaganda, reaching the feed more often. And you won’t really stop people like that, they’ll simply go to a different instance and do the exact same thing.

          Well, the same as always. They evolve, we evolve. Its an arms race.

          Its already way past that as well. Bans of the largest instances federate through to smaller instances. So if you manage to get banned on instances I federate with, I don’t see your stuff either.

          Works pretty well already.

      That’s Reddit, too. World News there is basically all Israeli propaganda right now. It becomes a lot more diluted with more users.
