Heck, a troll could spin up their own Lemmy instance.

Very true. But they could defederate that too. I have tried to set up an instance of Lemmy andkbin and it's not the easiest.

One user mentioned that they racked up 2 gb of data in 2 minutes of use. I'd imagine the overhead for maintaining an instance is huge over time

All Lemmy instances would have to defederate from the troll instance to truly contain it, no? As for overhead, some trolls rove in packs. But still you do make a good point for the lone troll 👍

And you're right about everyone degenerating from the one troll. Hope it doesn't happen but it's good to know we have admins and mods who care
