The last few posts made here, they've shown up, made the most inane, idiotic, and pointless comments, upvoted each other in a frenzy of circle jerking, and generally made a pest of themselves.

They're a nuisance, and add nothing of value to the Lemmy experience.

While I do enjoy the smaller community of the NZ instance currently, if it ever grows larger I think you’ll be facing similar challenges with users as can be seen with the NZ subreddit on reddit. Such is the nature of social media. So it’s worth thinking about how to manage it in the future is what I’m saying, I guess.

Lemmy 100% needs better mod tools. And user tools for that matter. Users being unable to block an instance is a pretty big hole.

Some lemmy instances are trying to foster a friendly community, and really the only tool we have for this so far is to defederate until tools improve.
