If we're being brigaded (that the correct term?) doing so may be less work/stress than waiting to get a hold of someone. Can Lemmy do such a thing? We do have precedent for this with toobnix.

In addition, @SDF if your plate is full I'm sure many of us, myself included, would be happy to help manage the instance.

Cheers

I do like the member only idea. At least it'll require that spammers donate before causing trouble and getting banned.

Seconded. There are other free instances they can use. And SDF already paywalls some services.

It'll also help with trolls for the same reason. It requires a level of dedication to join that most people won't have.
