Huh. In the list with “fastest growing #Lemmy instances” are only spam instances now
I’m currently creating an instance ban list for Geddit to block those instances if they don’t take action… This is a disaster waiting to happen :lemmy:
Community name squatting doesn’t make sense at all because different instances can have communities with the same name. So unless they manage to create one on all the big instances, that’s completely useless.
That’s what it seems like to me too. Plus there is nothing stopping admins of instances transferring ownership in these situations.
Exactly. Federated services seem to be much more resilient against abuse by design.
