So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

    The bit I’m curious about is how the federation works - does it rely on a ssl cert or something matching the domain to setup a trust, and then it becomes part of the network?

    If so, what’s to stop spammers just constantly adding new instances and spamming out comments to other instances communities non stop?
