Trolls? (lemmy.ca)

Hey y'all, keep an eye out for trolls. I have the impression there are a few accounts on here with users whose only purpose is to instigate others and get angry reactions out of people.

Are there any way to report these users? I haven't found a report button for users specifically.

Report comments, that should work.

Unfortunately for a lot of the .ml trolls that will just get you banned.

The Threadiverse is large enough to be usable without .ml

How does reporting comments work actually? I had thought it pinged mods/admin on the community/instance the comment is on, not the home instance of the user?

[–] Blaze@piefed.zip 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's both. Instance admins want to know if their users get reported

That makes sense. Thanks for actually explaining it.
