So for the folks seeing all the deleted comments and going “Wow, that’s uncharacteristic!”
Someone created a bot that posted over 7,000 40,000 garbage comments in multiple communities and now almost 10 bogus accounts.
They got banned and removed pretty quickly, but the nature of federation means some people are still seeing the comments.
So you can stop reporting the dude with the weird Simpsons/George Floyd mashup images. They’re already nuked, it just needs to finish cleaning it up.
The moderation channel right now is also being flooded with reports on the account that is already banned and removed, and that’s making it hard to get around to OTHER legitimate reports.
he’s not an admin…
i’m ending this conversation to save my own braincells.

I remember when I worked a QA job on software and someone told me I could fix a problem myself if I wanted. I think he was surprised that I wasn’t a coder. I may be a super nerd who knows a lot about Unix and can do a lot of sysadmin stuff and can sling scripting solutions but not compilable code.
