Looks like that SDF is unmanaged? Saw some stuff about that recently, but i maybe wrong I already blocked it anyways

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Just to clarify it isn’t unmanaged. Tbf they seem like a solid community. I don’t doubt that the past 24h have highlighted some issues for their admin team to deal with. I think it’s more prominent because most major instances have gotten on top of similar problems, so it harkens back to when lemmy was more “Wild West of the internet” in nature.

Isn't it just one user?

@[email protected]

Aside from not tagging, community config issue?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago

That user looks to be banned now.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

That’s the one! They’re pretty spammy too with the frequency. Yeah it’s both because you can see the inappropriate community icon too.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 hours ago

It is a new community, so that's part of it.

W/config I actually meant it probably should be nsfw by default. Though no idea. It's not an nsfw-specific instance so it could also be an issue.

Alternatively, this could be an instance-related protest. The context with that being: there is also an anti-trans poster on that instance and people are complaining about the lack of an admin response.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

This is why I don't browse "all".

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

I do a lot to find new interesting content and communities. I just block all communities that I don't want to see in my feed. It's not too much TBH. Maybe one new community per month or so.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Unfortunately a lot of people do; though on Lemmy it’s a far from perfect experience currently.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I've seen lots of people mad at sdf recently what they do?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

A person defining Nazis as evil lefts, hating on trans people and "wokeness" created several communities and posted in them.

People reported the user, communities and posts but it seems the instance is abandoned (no reaction from their admin) and things are escalating now.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

The admin stepped took care of that a while ago, now. At least look into it before "helpfully" lying.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

The moment I wrote the comment my all was still spammed with furry-trans-porn not marked as NSFW and a whole lot of threads from people being mad about what heppend there. So even if the problem is solved now. It wasn't just a few hours ago.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

The nazi grifter (the one you were actually talking about) was banned long before that.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

That was still the event that triggered the current escalation. I don't get your problem here? People waited yesterday the whole day for the instance to be cleaned up while things became worse. That's why things are the way they currently are.

Edit to add: I'm very confused why you not just added the info that things are solved now and the admin showed up instead of starting a fight.. so I'll stop answering now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Your claim that "the instance is abandoned" was demonstratably untrue, which you'd have known if you'd bothered to taken a second to verify.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 hours ago

Yeah even post tagged nsfw are coming through despite my having my feed set to filter all nsfw. Only from SDF so far so don’t know if this is more sdf drama/trolling.
