Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Hey sorry if anyone is getting DM spam. A flaw in Lemmy is that there isn't a way I know of to combat it. I can ban the account but it doesn't remove any DM already sent, and they seem to be creating new accounts all the time.

Hopefully there aren't too many lemmy.nz users seeing it. I just ran a database query to try to clear them out and it removed 13 (so if you got a notification of a new message and then didn't see any, this will be why). No doubt they will be back with a new account soon enough. Unfortunately the automod doesn't support scanning DMs.

In case there was any doubt, there is no Nicole, please don't send any money 🙂
