Yes, they've been though lemmy.zip as well - had the same this morning.
As ValueSubtracted said please report. Reporting alerts startrek.website admins and the admins of the user's home instance. If we notice another instance regularly not cleaning out their trash, we have the option to defederate from them.
It's a known spam wave affecting multiple lemmy servers - please report any spam DMs you receive. 🔨
Perhaps a stupid question, but how?
In the default Lemmy interface, it should be a flag icon. It's possible it's different if you're using an app?
Thanks. My singular brain cell for some reason missed that button.
No problem - we're unfortunately unable to delete the messages themselves the way we can remove a public comment, but rest assured we will fire the account into the sun (or, you know, just ban them from messaging our local users).
I also know that the admins of other servers are aware of the issue, so I encourage everyone to make reports, regardless of their home server.
You can, but you have to do it through the database, unfortunately. Just replace the actor IDs with the one(s) reported:
update private_message
set deleted = true
from person
where person.id = private_message.creator_id
and person.actor_id in ('https://lemmings.world/u/missy29', 'https://aggregatet.org/u/sognar');
I am, yes. But I've got a pc at home, I'll have to check on there.
Thank you!
Thanks for keeping me in the know. 😁
Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.
