I see a lot of posts lately, mainly in ‘world news’ communities, that when I investigate their source, I cannot come to any other conclostion that purposefully spreading of fake news and propaganda on lemmy....
Personally, most of my life has been both difficult and unpleasant due to mental health issues (and capitalism), so I’m just proud of myself for still being here.
The beginning of the year, I lost my best friend of over 35 years to an overdose- nine days ago I lost my dog of over 15 years, and now my mother is intubated in a hospital 3,000 miles away because of severe liver damage causing internal bleeding and I can’t go to her because I currently have chronic maxillary sinus infections and and cannot fly.
Please understandnim asking this question from a genuine place. I dont want the quora answer, i want the tech savvy, security expert minds of my fellow lemmings. If thats ok?...
I’m not here to call people out. I’m simply asking if others do the same as I do. There’s only been maybe one or two that I’ve seen spam that much and it was around a month ago. Blocked them. So now I can’t point to them anymore, but if you look at the a lot of the music communities- you’ll see TONS of people spamming 10-15 posts within a short time.
Because spam sucks. Regardless of the reason. When I’m scrolling, I don’t mind seeing all different posts to different communities. It’s the purpose of things here.
But when one asshole is spamming tons of content to one community- we have to scroll through that shit.
And it’s annoying.
I’m simply asking if anyone else agrees that it’s annoying and handles it the same, if you don’t- I wasn’t taking to you.
I consider it spam when you see that someone posted to a community 30+ times within one fucking hour.
The fact that you assume shit about people you don’t know suggests that maybe you’re one of the spammers because you clearly only think about yourself.
What can we do, as lemmy users, to fight fake news being pushed in the platform?

What difficult/unpleasant experience are you most proud of yourself for making it through?

People who post content because it makes you angry : why do you help it spread?
Stuff like memes from people you think are wrong politically, cartoons you don’t find funny, etc etc. Why help the things you hate spread?
