I started a new account, on a new instance, and the very first notification I got was for a spam message from that ‘fediverse chick’ person. It really made that “it’s like email” connection feel complete.
So you already know Nicole, I see
I got two early on, then no more. Is it still happening?
I on the other hand have no idea what you guys are talking about and never got such messages.
I dunno, my first was at the beginning and then one like two weeks after people complained. The fact that there is only one account that people have talked about is a pretty good sign.
The great thing about DM spam on Lemmy is it’s hard to defend against. They start spamming them out, and only the targetted users can see it. When someone eventually reports it, they get banned, but banning them doesn’t remove the DMs already sent 🙁
Oh, I just recently got one too!
It’s not email, nor the fediverse. It’s your contacts. Don’t kill the messenger.
I also hate everything
I used to feel like this about email, so I made my own email service. Try it out: https://port87.com/
I feel like most people hate email because email services stopped innovating like 15 years ago.
Email is great, outlook fucking sucks though
The search is fucking useless
Good for you. I’m gleefully hosting both.
nuggets is like family
