3 or 4 spam “Buy Phloboxidril Now In Your Area” posts per day were tolerable. 20 to 50 aren’t. I know I could block the magazine, but I’m just one of the many who are subjected to it.
E2a: a day later I blocked science, only to find that askKbin also suffers from this spam
Has there been a change in sourcing new magazines? Last time I tried it I couldn’t get anything to matriculate, at least not kbin style with searching etc. Big turn off for me but otherwise mbin seems like the best fit.
Not from what I’ve seen, unfortunately. Getting new instances to federate, at least from smaller, non Lemmy instances, is a bit of a pain. In the past I’ve done some testing with the two mags I currently own, and it looks like things don’t always properly federate.
I’ve also noticed the same goes for voting. There’s been more than once I’ve seen differing upvotes/downvotes on a thread depending on whether you’re looking at it from kbin vs mbin.
Maybe I should reach out to the person who runs the mbin instance I am on. They were a kbin person before and may have some insight. An mbin version of this meta would be helpful, as mentioned!
