I just checked the modlog, and they keep featuring posts from the instance fanaticus.social. From time to time, a post from that instance appears instead of the post I’m looking for. Already blocked all the /c.

    That’s… Suspicious. Are they taking advantage of the bugs by doing this? Or are they even aware? This is likely the reason why people have been seeing random game threads.

        It is the web sockets bug, though go ahead and block the bot if it is troubling you. You will still get dropped into random threads - the baseball threads just show up more because they are actively being edited during games. The 0.18 update would fix it, but it apparently has its own bugs (see ruud’s post in !Lemmy.world)
