what's the asshole mitigation plan?
So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.
When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

I'm wondering the same, I would guess grey listing and shadow banning to be the most effective.
Shadow banning is a bit controversial.
Yeah I would rather we just ban them outright
Shadow banning is Orwellian . something you might expect from the CCP instead of a supposedly progressive online forum. If you're going to ban someone at least have the decency to let them know they are banned.
All these American tech firms shadow ban people. The practice is very abusive, but it is also very American.
