It would help a lot of you provided examples of the posts you have issues with so we can see what was/wasn't done and discuss what needs to be done going forward.

I need to see this bad content before I'm able to take part in this conversation.
Here is his profile https://sh.itjust.works/u/dramaticcat
A whole bunch of 8kun / 4chan garbage. If that's not against the rules, it should be.
A whole bunch of 8kun / 4chan garbage. If that’s not against the rules, it should be.
Out of all the 4chan posts I made, only one broke sitewide rules and one of them is currently on the lemmy frontpage right now.
Have you reported the posts and users you're referring to? Or have you tried reaching out to the admins yet? Without proper reporting, you can't know if they're even aware of an issue.
I have indeed reached out to the admins and have filed many reports for said abusive behavior about the communities and about the hostile users. I have yet to hear back from the admins and this is not my first time reaching out.
Have you tried getting into the instance's Matrix chat? The admins are often there.
I have now posted in the Matrix chat, I don't really use matrix. So I didn't at first but I made one and posted there.
Am I missing something? The community you linked only has one post.
I've noticed the user you've mentioned reposting some of my greentext posts to similar communities on different instances (and vis versa), but that seems harmless. Maybe even a needed service.
My apologies it seems that the Kiwifarms community has restructured to serve different content from the last iteration.
Hate to say it, linking to a community with nothing in it and providing no other examples makes this whole thing look a little like a big meta troll where you’re the one who made the community with an alt and you’re trying to start drama for the lols.
Now, I’m not saying that that is the case. I’m saying I have no idea what’s going on here and everything seems off in someway.
General advice for dealing with issues and drama on social media: receipts. Links and screenshots. You can’t have too many. Let people see the issue for themselves and make it as easy as possible for them to see it by providing a clear and thorough outline full of said links and screenshots.
Then be as clear as you can about what rule or value you think is being breached, what reasonable action you think should be taken, and then why the above applies the user/community in question.
Let's defederate from everyone everywhere and bring this experiment to an end as there will always be mean and ugly people somewhere on the internet.
Ooh baseless strawman arguments, my favorite, you will notice that this post is not calling for or asking anywhere for defederation, but that's what happens when think and speak before you read.
Or you assume that everyone on this forum is calling for it because you prefer to lash out at people than to listen to them because you don't like or are bored by discussion of real issues.
I assume people on this forum only want to interact with people they agree with. I assume lemmy is going to sprinter into echo chambers and be real boring.
I don't give a shit what you are or are not calling for. Merely a comment.
lmao none of my communities I created breaks any rules, and that "kiwifarms" community has nothing to do with the infamous site.
