    I disable them individually as them come up, but it’s a pain, and can see why people just Death Star the lot of them (is “death star” a verb?).

    As the author of a bot that I hope is useful though, it’s kind of a bummer.

        It depends how you’re accessing Lemmy.
        On the website, you can click on the 3 vertical dots near the post or comment, and chose ‘Block User’ from there.
        On the Voyager app, you can click the user’s name, and then select it from the 3 horizontal dots.
        It might be that whatever app you’re using doesn’t support it. Before Voyager did, I used to go into my Settings and then search for the user (e.g. [at] bot [at] lemmit [dot] online) in the ‘Blocks’ sections.

        Yeah it’s a thankless task. I don’t know who it was who thought “Let’s start our own Reddit … with reposted stuff from Reddit!”

          Yeah, at least c/antiquememesroadshow uses a new concept with reliving meme nostalgia, and refugees of r/prequelmemes, r/sequelmemes and whatever the OT meme sub is have united into one community here- as have the state-themed subreddits for Washington, Oregon and Idaho with c/pnw.
