Yes mechanized troll legions, now entirely autonomous trollbots. You have to ban som users I am sure.
For the fediverse to take off, it needs to be better than reddit, and to thst end, instances should adopt a clear set of rules, where violations can be appealed all the way to a jury of users.
Because powerful interests have their hooks in reddit and induce them to violate users on other issues that are not even ahainst the rules, . Argue with some israeli trollcheerers and you will soon see what I mean. It will only get worse, we can safely presume the government is and will be moreso giving users to ban. Perhaps mostly through contractors to avoid another homeland security leak.
Whole instances should not be banned or blocked to everyone in the instance either.
I guess we don't disagree, then.
