Call to Lemmy instance admins! (geddit.social)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

As you can see, there is a massive spam wave going on on Lemmey based instances.

This can be avoided by enabling CAPTCHA with signup and also LIMIT the registers per X seconds!

Currently the accounts are idle but this can change soon.. Please take action NOW!

Oh this is bad...

Even a simple captcha or Hcaptcha is better than nothing at all.. Geddit will also not upgrade if it's removed

Are you able to make a comment on that issue thread? We really need more instance admins to weigh in, and if half as many admins who've complained about this did so, they might reverse course. But right now these threads are just giving Devs support to remove "imperfect methods" anyways.

It's critical and crucial that we admins stay engaged with the project or else this all goes to crap.
