minus-squareJilanico@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoHeck, a troll could spin up their own Lemmy instance.
minus-squareShortcake@kbin.socialOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-21 year agoVery true. But they could defederate that too. I have tried to set up an instance of Lemmy andkbin and it’s not the easiest. One user mentioned that they racked up 2 gb of data in 2 minutes of use. I’d imagine the overhead for maintaining an instance is huge over time
minus-squareJilanico@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoAll Lemmy instances would have to defederate from the troll instance to truly contain it, no? As for overhead, some trolls rove in packs. But still you do make a good point for the lone troll 👍
