I have reconsidered this and will no longer be unlisting lemmy instances with large number of spam signups.
Instead I'd like to explore a way to label potential spam instances in a way that doesn't exclude instances.

@dansup Not many people have their ego sufficiently in check to be able to publicly say “this idea I had was the wrong one”. Good job. @dansup You should put a yellow flag next to the name and when you hover over it you get a little message explaining that it might be spam @dansup perhaps some kind of instance reputation? Been in use for years for mail servers so a lot of problems have likely been addressed already. |
@dansup maybe a flag of some kind that can sit near the instance name or something?
like “Suspected Spam” or “Potential Spam”?
