If your post would end up like that in a day, please just refrain from posting it, in any community, or use a throwaway. It is very destructive, especially since all and every comment also becomes unreachable with it.

Sincerely,
With all due respect,
Your Lemmy neighbor

I’m fed up with this shit, and I know it well that it’s not just me.

Do not bomb your communities, please.

I promise, I’ll end up setting up a public instance that does not obey any deletions because of these madlads. Seriously, where is pushshift for lemmy?

    My solution to this is:

    1. Use a UI or app that badges or otherwise indicates new accounts (or accounts newer than 30 days or so)
    2. Refuse to interact with those accounts in the various “ask” communities. Maybe even throw it a downvote if it seems like it’s coming from the same person that keeps doing this.
    3. If no one engages with them, maybe they’ll knock this “hit it and quit it” bullshit off.

    Sorry legit new accounts, but it’s these selfish assholes that are ruining things for you and everyone else.
