    When you notice people from a specific instance being trolly, ban the entire instance. Also don’t feel afraid to just block someone acting up. You will find it surprisingly cathartic.

      That’s definitely heavy handed, but sometimes definitely necessary. There’s some big troll instances out there, and once they’re blocked Lemmy gets a lot nicer.

      I do suggest with starting individually, keeping a mental note of the instance. Then you are more sure when you’re like “Damn 10x the ones are from foo.bar, guess it’s time”
