Yeah agreed, with enough administrators it could be kept to a minimum especially if users help with reporting comments, posts and so on. But it will still be very hard to completely keep Lemmy clean of trolls and all the nasty stuff we would rather stay away from that reddit has become.

I believe it's the users job to help keep the app safe as well. Administrators can't catch everything which is why it's really good to have a report button. I know earlier today I reported something very serious (like incriminating) on reddit and I reported it and I somehow got banned for report spamming but then the person got a temporary ban for illegal activities.. it's just so sad what that place has become

I'm a free speech activist and open sourced enthusiast. I also work in cyber security and to be banned for reporting illegal activity and then have them walk away with a temp ban is pretty disheartening tbh

I think from what I've seen being on here for a couple hours

I love it a lot more we just need to get more active people
The idea behind this site is amazing and I like what it stands for.
You guys (as devs) seem to be working very hard on this and you all seem to really care about free speech and having a friendly and active community

I will be supporting this site from now on and can't wait to create my own communities and see how it turns out in the future <3
