I'm not gonna lie, I'm surprised it took this long for some dipshit to try something like this. Lemmy's security has more holes in it than a piece of Swiss cheese and we're fools if we think it's viable enough for it to serve as a long-term home for new social media.

We really, really need a better social structure than federation.

Lemmy's security

I think you mis-spelled moderation tools, nice quick fix would have been to block posts from new users on X instance and have a pinned post briefly covering why - they'll eventually run out of instances that don't have open signups IMO or just give up.

Another mod tools option would be rate limiting of posts, i.e. users can only make a new shitpost every 10-15min, rather than unlimited times per minute
