A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

If your post would end up like that in a day, please just refrain from posting it, in any community, or use a throwaway. It is very destructive, especially since all and every comment also becomes unreachable with it.

Sincerely,
With all due respect,
Your Lemmy neighbor

I'm fed up with this shit, and I know it well that it's not just me.

Do not bomb your communities, please.

I promise, I'll end up setting up a public instance that does not obey any deletions because of these madlads. Seriously, where is pushshift for lemmy?

My solution to this is:

Use a UI or app that badges or otherwise indicates new accounts (or accounts newer than 30 days or so)
Refuse to interact with those accounts in the various "ask" communities. Maybe even throw it a downvote if it seems like it's coming from the same person that keeps doing this.
If no one engages with them, maybe they'll knock this "hit it and quit it" bullshit off.

Sorry legit new accounts, but it's these selfish assholes that are ruining things for you and everyone else.

That seems like a tripping powermod problem, not a user problem.

Users can block other users. Mods are unnecessary and harmful. A redundant point of failure.

EDIT: Oh, wait, if it's the user doing it just block that asshole, it'll save you the frustration.

It's usually mods powertripping, though.

Maybe make lemmy a more welcoming place to post, hm?

The problem never is you...
