outside of running your own instance, asking your instance’s owner to block them, or joining one that already has the offender on the blocklist, no. It’s requested a lot though so it’s probably on the todo list

Maybe I’ve just spent too long arguing with aholes on the internet but to me calling someone “friend” comes across as very sarcastic and condescending

Edit, it’s like calling someone you don’t know “buddy” or “pal”

yeah the site wouldnt load for me at the time but it does now

I bet we fall just outside the top 10. Seems pretty busy here to me, plus our LOTR memes make top upvoted pretty frequently. Honestly I’m wondering if the user distribution might be pretty dang good below the top 5 servers or so; 234k could be a serious underestimation of the actual active userbase if the next 20 servers all have 1k+

idk, im surprised it took this long. there’s a huge variety of admin teams with varying degrees of security awareness and it’s been over a month since the first big influx of users started. it’ll happen again too and probably not before too long

In our current unparalleled enterprise, refusal to switch platforms is simply a refusal to grow—an insistence on watching ads, if you will. Did the Digg user refuse to Reddit? It did not. It crept forth boldly while its brethren remained in the blackest ocean abyss, with lidless eyes forever staring at the dark, ignorant and doomed despite their eternal vigilance. Would we model ourselves on the Facebook user?
