NSFL spam coming from lemmy.blahaj.zone accounts (midwest.social)

There are reports of spam coming from specific users on lemmy.blahaj.zone. I stumbled across some very unpleasant NSFL content on an unrelated post. I wouldn't reccomend it, but you could check [email protected]'s profile for an example if it hasn't been taken down yet.

It may be worth temporarily blocking that instance until they get a handle on the situation.

Been getting a lot of that type of spam from Hexbear ever since they were federated to my home instance a few months ago. Not sure if it's ALL coming out of them but the vast majority that I've seen has been.

That's more brigading than anything, which I guess still counts as spamming but is more coordinated and not by bots.
That's just hexbear.
