That would need to be a bot. The problem is that the spammer would just move on to the next community (which they have just done by moving to askLemmy@lemmy.ml I just put a tool up that automatically notifies a bunch of admins, mods and community team members when a post get's reported more than 3 times, so please report the posts if you see them.
I’m an admin for lemmy.world and I want to apologize for the way to slow reaction here. CP should be talen down on sight, and we failed to do that in time.
I will be discussing with the other admins on how to fix this in the future. Till then I can say nothing else then: sorry.
Yea, no clue, very annoying to deal with. I've been building tools to allow us to delete them faster. Some information on how it currently works: if a post get's reported more than 3 times in a short time, some people get notified and they can identify whether it's spam and then instantly delete it. We also have an automod made by Rooki which has a list of blacklisted URL's. If anyone has any ideas on how to improve this, feel free to share.
The admin that organized that has left the team. I’m the new solo-lead for the community team, and will try to get that started again soon. Any suggestions for communities are more than welcome!
Happy cakeday!
