There’s a new one suddenly popping up in my feed but obviously the reports are being “resolved” by the mods of that community. They suggested to me that I block their community but I will not because that is how you get a cesspit of an instance. How do we report disinformation communities straight to the admins?

Edit: the admins did remove the community in question so I’m going to take that as the official stance on disinformation communities and also assume that any type of community (right wing, left wing, or other) that are intentionally spreading disinformation will be removed. That makes me feel much better about the situation since this type of thing is pretty much guaranteed to pop up again.

    Do I even want to know what that is? I’ll give the admins a chance to respond but if I don’t agree with the response I’ll just delete my account here, because otherwise more of this will pop up and I’ll have the entire instance blocked and then what’s the point?

      Explodingheads is an edgy, red-pilled, manosphere-loving, alt-right instance. A real den of scum and villainy type place. Many of the larger instances have already de-federated with them.

      I have to say, though, despite the fact that Lemm.ee hasn’t yet followed suit, I haven’t seen any posts from there in the local/all feeds.
