What’s with all the porn in Random today?
The spammers have broken in and started posting links to sites I’ve never heard of. I must have blocked a dozen users today.
You're viewing a single thread.
I was subbed to random@kbin.social on another account, and I started by blocking and reporting several of the spammers, but nothing seemed to happen, so I thought maybe they're alright with straight up porn?
That's where the bulk of it seemed to be. Once I blocked that community, I haven't seen much since, even browsing all.
I'm still a noob here good sir, how can I possibly block these spam? I'm currently using desktop. I also was subbed to random@kbin.social without me ever knowing that instance.
Are you sure you weren't browsing all? I don't think you could be subscribed to a community without your knowing.
To block: Click on the community name (random@kbin.social) next time you see a post from there. There should be a "block community" button on the right side of the screen. I've done this quite a lot to block the porn communities. I see you're on lemmy.ml, so I think if you click the following link you should see that block button: https://lemmy.ml/c/random@kbin.social
Don't worry, it was confusing to me when I first joined the fediverse as well.
Idk, maybe I just clicked it by accident? Thank you so much for this brother. May you have a nice day ahead!
Yep, fediverse is really confusing as hell, but I'm working my way up to familiarizing with it!
