Tech workers now doubting decision to move from California to Texas::Unsatisfied with the talent pool, traffic, and heat in Texas, some California tech workers are weighing another move.
Is there a way to get lemmy to remove reposts?
Block the accounts that are reposting
It’d be better to have clients that can aggregate links posted across communities (so you only see 1 aggregate post per link on a given day), as well as block or mark as read based on the link.
Blocking individual users is a manual, endless game of whackamole.
I don’t know about endless. !technology only has about a dozen different users represented on the first page of posts. I don’t think Lemmy has the critical mass of users to flood the “block a few manually” response.
I do like the idea of combining reposts between communities, though. Get just one discussion going! Someone posted something interesting about books the other day. I replied, but there was no other activity.
Turned out that all the discussion was happening in the OTHER community, the one I hadn’t seen :(
Although…different communities have different moderation standards. A combined discussion like this would be a headache for the mods.
You could also ignore reposts. For some of us, it’s the first time we are seeing it.
yeah why clean it up? i love garbage whore spam websites i go there constantly
this one is a bot, and I think a bot could at least make a search before posting a link. but I suppose cleaning these up could be done by another bot.
