So much spam (kbin.social)
submitted 7 months ago by Yprum@kbin.social to c/kbin@kbin.social

There seems to be a few waves of users created just to post spam specifically in kbin. It's quite strange as the posts are so obvious and they keep getting downvoted. I'm also blocking the users but I can't see a way to report them. Is there a better way to handle this situation?

You can easily report if you're using kbin website, don't know how it works if you're using an app. You just hover over the "more" link and a dropdown appears with "Report" as the first option.

You can report. Whether it actually does anything is a different question

Yeah of course, but at least I will feel like I did what I could to bring attention to those accounts if anything would be done.

Aaaah thanks so much... I feel dumb now XD
I never thought of checking that, I was kinda looking for a way to report the user itself, not the post... I will start doing this too.

I'm using the webpage from the browser by the way.
