Your must be new here. This happens a lot. Just block and ignore them and they'll eventually tire themselves out.
Who?
Posts like these are what he craves.
Don't engage, don't comment, don't make threads about it, ignore.
Honestly it seems that they are exposing a pretty big vulnerability in the current lemmy setup. What's to stop someone from effectively DDOSing an instance by just posting a shitload of trash to a bunch of communities via a few dozen bot accounts? If this one guy can cause this much of an issue, I'd hate to see what would happen if some dipshit with a computer science background decided to take out a grudge. Not that that's happened at all recently.
That's a good point. These AI tools do make this nonsense more broadly available to folks who haven't a degree.
But also, two finger salute to that bastard Admiral Tesseract.
While there's no real solution yet, please don't engage with him.
Agreed, just block the account and move on. But I was left wondering after today's outburst if this is a token generated hostile action.
An interesting consideration, considering he doesn't seem to tire.
A cease and desist letter
Except it'd have to be from every separate instance?
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.
