There are reports of spam coming from specific users on lemmy.blahaj.zone. I stumbled across some very unpleasant NSFL content on an unrelated post. I wouldn't reccomend it, but you could check soot@lemmy.blahaj.zone's profile for an example if it hasn't been taken down yet.

It may be worth temporarily blocking that instance until they get a handle on the situation.

Just blocked the instance, I noticed it too. Poor children. Why would anyone do such a thing. Posting it in an argument of awareness is one thing, why would anyone just spam it.

To get a trans friendly instance blocked.

It'll be unblock once their mods deal with the account.

They need to deal with the methods these accounts use, not just individual accounts.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

How many people who individually block will go back to unblock?

[-] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 2 points 7 months ago

Probably none, which is why it's likely better for the instance to be proactive with doing it and work with the admins of the other instance in monitoring.
