Hey yβall since it seems that some political troll farms may have joined the fediverse as of a few days ago and are potentially targeting mastodon.social now with accounts posting some of the stupidest political reply guy takesβ¦ it should be said to please be extremely suspicious if you get a weirdo in your replies being extra politically aggressive or deliberately trying to start a fight. Report and block. Do not argue. Do not let them waste your time.
@gavi my god why would they reply to this post lmaoo
@gavi Reporting works quite well on Mastodon - so reporting BEFORE blocking helps a lot that such "farms" are isolated quickly.
@gavi We got mastodon.social muted over here. More and more that seems like it was a good choice on our instance admin's part.
