    Seriously. 2010-ish reddit was a great fucking place. If I start fucking seeing novelty accounts, I’m fucking out of here, to some far-flung instance with a militant mod.

        There were accounts on reddit that just made a running joke, or something to that extent. For instance, once guy was shittywater colour, and he’d draw your comments if he liked them. While he was actually one I didn’t mind, he’s the first example that comes to mind. most of them were dogshit and didn’t add anything worth while.

      So right. I’m getting a lot of the same vibe from Lemmy at the moment. If you see any accounts you don’t like, just block them.

      I bet there will even be shared user-blocklists in the future, where novelty accounts, bot accounts not using the bot tag etc. can be blocked en masse.
