There’s a new one suddenly popping up in my feed but obviously the reports are being “resolved” by the mods of that community. They suggested to me that I block their community but I will not because that is how you get a cesspit of an instance. How do we report disinformation communities straight to the admins?

Edit: the admins did remove the community in question so I’m going to take that as the official stance on disinformation communities and also assume that any type of community (right wing, left wing, or other) that are intentionally spreading disinformation will be removed. That makes me feel much better about the situation since this type of thing is pretty much guaranteed to pop up again.

    I was just responding to your question of what was the difference between blocking an instance and a community.

    The community-sourced labeling is an interesting idea, which I hadn’t really considered. Not sure it fully solves the concern of bad faith actors looking to JAQ-off and otherwise poison discussions but it’s a step in the right direction.
