That's not the mentality of a small child that's the mentality of someone who actively refuses to take their medicine. There definitely has to be some underlying problem with them, if I were this mad I 1. wouldn't do this and 2. would be over it within 2 minutes at most. This user can get fucked.
Seems he's been trying to mess with any instance he gets an account on, I know sh.itjust.works was spammed with "LMAO" communities as well as one other instance iirc
Can’t even imagine why someone would waste their time like this. The instance is basically a non profit run by volunteers who believe in the technology…so let me just spend hours of my life trying to be a dick to them
Sure but this won't stop until it's not possible or worth the effort/resources. So I'm wondering if there's a technical restriction that could be put in place for such behavior. Maybe instances should just start limiting the number of new communities someone can create in a certain amount of time on their instance.
Hexbear had a nerd like this in the first year, must have been 3 years ago now. They spammed John Kerry pictures and did it every single day for like 10 months.
Is there a way to add this as a bug or feature request list for Lemmy? This seems like a concern that will need to be addressed at some point in the future. Maybe opening up communities created by banned users. Or adding a feature where users can report rogue moderators and allow communities to be liberated from rulers who become malicious or have their account hacked?
this makes it more or less impossible to search for Communities with numbers in the name at least for me because they have random strings of numbers in the description.
