Find a Lemmy app that has user tagging (I use Voyager, and previously Connect) and when you see these users make a note of each one with a red tag so they stand out when you're browsing.
You'll start to see the bastards turning up in all kinds of conversations as well as posting ridiculous shit. That's what I did with the Russian/American trolls/bots during the american election. Very enlightening to see in a political thread who the repeat offender shit-disturbers are so you can down vote, argue with, or report them instead of blocking them and allowing their infection to spread.
Tagging is handy for nice people as well; the community of people around you on Lemmy starts to look more familiar, smaller, and friendlier than you realize, and dick heads become easier to spot.
How do you use the tagging feature? I'm on Voyager too, when I click on a user profile I don't see any tagging options. Only block and send message.
Go to Settings->User Tags -> Enable User Tags.
Then you’ll see the option in the user profile.
Don't forget to tag yourself!
How'd you tag yourself? After enabling the feature, under my profile I only see "Mod Logs".
Edit: also thanks for showing that I can separate the vote counts, I clearly haven't explored the app enough 😅.
I long press a user name to edit and set tags, including my own!
I feel you though, I never used to bother too much with settings and purposefully stuck to defaults unless I had an issue, but since I've been using more FOSS apps I'm finding my defaults mantra to be very limiting. Many times I can have a great experience with ten minutes of tinkering I wasn't willing to do before.
Ahh, I gotcha, now that is a useful shortcut. Thank you!
Hahaha yeah, I've been seeing that with FOSS apps too as I've been slowly diving into them more. The current climate has really been quite the impetus.
