Lemmy: first 3 pages top servers are spam (fedidb.org)

On FediDB the total user number for Lemmy has now reached 2,710,730.

"Top" servers first 3 pages are full with spam account:

It is clear these instances are filled with "idle" spam accounts since the MAU (Montly Active Users) and Status Count does not come anywhere close to the total users per those instances.

If anyone knows a solution for these admins to remove the spam accounts please let me know in the comments!

Let's hope v0.18.1 of Lemmy releases soon with the captcha added again since we do need it..

Those numbers seem super high even with current migrations. Bots spamming bots. I hope the major Lemmy instances can get 18 working soon as well. Not just for captcha but also the content curation algorithm.

FediDB needs to filter out the spam instances. New users might end up on one of them.
