Just as I predicted a few months ago, the Deprogram sub would suffer the same fate as r/communistmemes. Here we are!

    Turns out 4chan users mass spammed the report function.

        No. The “hardcoded slur filter” (that hasn’t been hardcoded for years) scares them away.

        Theyre everywhere. But what I worry about the most is them coming here and posting gore and other vile things like they always do.

          Some wrecker years ago spam posted disgusting images on hexbear so a hexbear dev ended up making some code that blurs images by default. I don’t think it was implemented in Lemmy itself, but maybe someone can make it into a lemmy setting.

            I think the the clients have in app settings to automatically blur nsfw images.
