Hey everyone. Today I started noticing some people from eviltoast.org spamming the same message over and over again in comment sections (might even be the same person). I took a look at their instance and it doesn't seem to be a very old instance, and it seems like its not a bad place, except for this spammer. I already blocked one account but not too long after encountered the account in the link above. So after I block this guy too, and after reading this comment thread it seems its a bot and they will simply be back with more accounts. What do we do in this situation? Is the only option to simply block them every time we encounter one of their accounts?

There most recent activity is from 18 days ago the rest average a month most recent.

I'm thinking they don't have a registration application so Anyone is signing up and using their instance to spam others.

I would temporarily block them until you get a hold of the instance admin because it's probably abandoned
