RTR#32 Further refactoring, debugging voting errors (kbin.social)

Today, I continue with code refactoring, getting closer to finishing the most tedious part. I've also improved tools to prevent spam on the instance, which will take effect in a few days, addressing the issue of overloading other instances that have been reported. After today's wave of spam, I've also started working on notification reports for magazines owners, which nicely aligns with the current code changes.

I've encountered an error a few times during upvoting, and it seems to occur when attempting to block users as well. I've made initial attempts to address the issue, but finding the bug might take some time. If the instance returns this error, please mention me in a post on kbinMeta along with the post URL and the time the error occurred. Together, we'll identify and eliminate this bug much faster :)

Great! This is likely the most #annoying #bug on Kbin right now so I'm glad it's getting fixed.

Upvoting a "recursion" post briefly caused 500 for me just now. Later it worked, though.

Currently getting an error trying to block @news_us_politics via the magazines page.

Now @politics.

@uspolitics. I'm half suspecting the error might be related to how many requests I've already made to block things recently, since I was having no issues going through the first couple of pages and blocking about half the magazines on them and now suddenly am encountering a bunch of errors? But I have no actual evidence for that.

Successfully blocked the second two magazines about two minutes after this post but @news_us_politics is still giving me errors. It doesn't seem to be particularly consistent.

Tried upvoting https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/681334/What-is-your-favorite-thing-about-kbin and got an error just now.
