  I wish it was rarer is all. The joke got old after it was 4 out of 5 reviews with just something like “my girlfriend said she’d buy me this game if this review got 1 million likes” or a big ASCII Heavy giving thumbs up.

  YouTube comments are like that too. Everyone wants to be funny. Say something real.

  I believe you can block communities by name? Like all communities with “moe” in the name. It’s been long enough that I don’t remember how I did it though. Didn’t want to directly block the bloke who was posting them, since they do actively post in communities I like.

  Nope, there are (were?) a gazillion different “moe” communities. I would block each community as I saw them, but it was becoming a little absurd. Ultimately I blocked every community with “moe” in the name, since I didn’t want to block non-art posts from that user. It’s a bit of a clunky solution though.

  Just checked their account and they’re still going lol. Won’t name them here though. It’s not like you’d have trouble figuring out who they were if it’s a problem.

  Yeah, it seems like it was basically one person. Won’t name them here – they aren’t really doing anything wrong, and if it’s a problem for you it’s not like it’s hard to figure out who.

  I actually assumed they were a bot, but they’re out there participating in normal conversations on communities I enjoy. Plus I don’t want to just block the entirety of ani.social, since I do actually watch anime and want to talk about it sometimes.

  Ultimately I went with filtering out all “moe” communities, but I wish I could create a more specific rule.

  There is a lemmy user who does the same damn thing for “moe” pics. I swear to God they made a new community for every single pic. I was trying to avoid blocking the user but it clogsv the “all” section really bad.
