His profile in case he changes it later on.
Sounds like a well adjusted person with a happy life.
Damn, Karen couldn't speak to the manager so instead they choose to pick up their own fecal matter and scrawl it over the building walls to own the store.
Instead of going about their day and barely acknowledging it they go for the pure beta energy and let it bother them to the point of going through the effort to make communities. If they had this same energy for their life, maybe they could get their shit together.
I thought there would be a limit to creating communities but I guess not.
That's a good point. I opened an issue on Github to propose such a limit: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3452
It definitely sounds like a DoS / troll point, so it is good we realized this soon. Thank you for the proposal
I know next to nothing about coding, but manually opening communities to DoS seems like trying to fill up someone's email inbox by sending someone thousands of emails with one word in it.
I don't know if it is possible, but I suspect there is an automated way to do it. Imagine you are using a client like thunder or liftoff. The "Create community" button is linked to an access point to the Lemmy API. If you know how to do it, you can DoS the instance. At the very least, you annoy the rest of the users.
@ruud@lemmy.world Deleting those communities takes one SQL statement and hence less time than creating them, right?
