My entire Lemmy feed is 1 single user (bot?) reposting the same link across communities

sonovebitch@lemmy.world to Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world – 249 points –

Is there anything I can do about duplicates? I use Sync for Lemmy on Android.

Getting real annoyed by these kinds of posts.

This happens on reddit too.

Look into your app filters. Block users. Block instances.

FYI for anyone unaware: blocking users is a core Lemmy feature and blocking with an app should block inside Lemmy itself; meaning if you switch apps or log in from the web, your block list remains intact.

Instance blocking is not a core Lemmy feature (yet) and so if it’s available in your app, be aware that your app is what does the blocking. Meaning if you switch apps or log in from the web that block won’t be there.

sync has block and filter.

block is generic lemmy, filter is sync specific.

you can filter keywords, users, communities and instances.

you can only block users and communities.
