Admin of lemmy.dbzer0.com here and yeah i can confirm it’s from instances with open registration. Also most of them are smaller instances that aren’t that well maintained and will probably feel the consequence by being blocked by other instances…
12,363 and counting for us lol… it’s stressful sometimes but i am super happy with our community. Most reports actually are about others content interestingly enough
No offense to our brothers and sisters in the fediverse, but kbin.social surely has a lot of spam coming out… it’s a very popular instance and that attracts a lot of dickheads.
(edit: might not be sole) Dev/moderator doesnt want a team but has some health issues presumably, so definitely can’t manage it themselves. This is just the aftermath of a couple months of that

There is a team, not a sole dev.
I’m not saying everything is roses and rainbows, but this is FUD messaging being spread openly by the mbin dev team.
Damn, I’m just repeating what ive heard but its weird the whole team isn’t doing as much moderating as one’d expect
Yeah honestly no idea regarding moderation. But the codebase is maintained by a team.
