They’re all sent by a handful of recently created accounts.

Should there be an admin approval system for first posts, or something similar to slow down such attempts?

Edit 2: The brigaders are coming from /pol/ as found by @gun@lemmy.ml

Edit 3: They’ve now been banned. Thank you mods.

    Lemmy should require a minimum of time (or “karma”) before allowing to post or comment in any instance

      How do you get karma without posting?

        either there has to be a minimum time for account creation of be able to post (which can be circumvented) or you can post one article and then have to wait for upvotes (which can be circumvented)

        Nice one, I was inaccurate. But you could gain it by completing some security or profile steps or with upvotes or comments, something that requires time in general

            Shadowbans require constant moderation and can easily be abused by ‘powermods’ to silence objective opinions.

            That’s one of the reasons reddit is so awful.

                Reporting doesn’t mean I’m advocating for shadow bans. It measn I’m reporting spam
