If they’re trying to attack all of Lemmy, or the whole Fediverse, they’re doing it wrong. lol

It’s like obvious spam emails that put no effort into appearing legitimate. You have the spirit of it, but your heart is in the wrong place.

    It is, or at least partially… From what I understand a user(Lmao/Angled) was “sub-lemmy camping” (took up thousands of popular sub names and wasn’t doing anything with them) so lemmy world banned him from that instance. He had a hissy fit and “vowed revenge” and has been attempting to do as much damage to .world as he/they could since. I can’t find the original post but https://old.lemmy.world/post/943832 and https://old.lemmy.world/post/1720870 has a bit of detail.

    Edit: added some info

      Imagine spending so much time doing something as pointless as that and spending even more time (and maybe money) throwing a hissy fit when things don’t go your way.

        Yeah, unfortunately that egotistic extreme response is prevalent and encouraged in current affairs.

      If this is accurate it’s particularly funny in light of the fact that every instance can have a community of a given name. It’s not taken for every instance once one instance makes a community of a particular name, haha.
