These are all spam or troll accounts that keep spinning up after they get banned (or at least the ones my instance knows about). You ban one, they just spin up another because there is only a medium strength captcha preventing it. Even requiring email verification would be a step in the right direction and slow this down somewhat if you’re completely opposed to having applications in place.

Some instances have already defederated from yours, and my patience is wearing thin as well. I’m not going to tell you how to run your instance, but I will point out the problems yours is causing and hope that you will choose to address them.

Sincerely, your fedihood neighbor.

Edit: Updated to remove a few legitimate users / false positives that were banned for more normal reasons.

Edit 2: I, and at least one or two other admins, have tried reaching out to the admin there, and AFAIK, none of us have received any replies. So I figured at this point a full page ad, so to speak, was warranted and might get their attention.

    Everything to fight trolls in the ways like email requirements is gonna hurt genuine users more and just cause mild inconvenience to spam bots and trolls as temp mails are quite easy to ise and only genuine users are not gonna want to attach a temp mail to their acc . But yeah maybe a form filling like on .ml and that would weed out people like “jewkiller” etc. and would work better overall imo.

    Edit : sigh Let me guess the downvotes because i’m using a new acc ? Well lemmings that is how it works everyone starts somewhere and doesn’t spawn out of thin air with a year old acc yes you too had a new acc once . For what’s worth you can check my history and see I in fact am not a troll just stop being paranoid as hell all the time .
