It's a single bot, block it and it's all gone.

Ty ! I noticed also that bots has a distinctive icon on their names so it’s easy to identify and block them

Could you post the lemmy handler of that boy, so I can block it also?

[-] nyakojiru@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

Sorry I don’t even know we’re to find blocked users. But the name of it was just “bot”

Sort of makes sense, if you go to their home page their description is

A Reddit to Lemmy crossposting instance.

So the entire instance is just bots re-posting content from Reddit.

I don't normally browse /all so haven't seen the posts myself. The Lemmy web ui doesn't allow blocking instances so you'd just need to block the bot for now. I've read that some apps can do instance blocking.

Yea, it's not very good. Don't subscribe to any lemmit communites. I don't think you can block them from Lemmy if you use /all.
