From now on, whenever I report a new remote troll, I'm going to include "please moderate your signups" in the report.

I might add "Or pay me for doing your moderation work." at some later point.

You are doing good work. I sent in a really bad one tonight. That doesn't sound like a fun job.

@resplendent606 Yeah, today I woke up to two really bad hate-speech reports and just now I reported the notorious FediBlock troll's daily new account.

I generally like the job, because it's important, but those unmoderated-signup-servers are really annoying because they create 90% of my workload for no good reason.

I thought reports went to your own server admin, and only optionally to the reported user's?

Forgive the semi-question as I'm hazy on this, and realise options may be different for you, *an actual server admin* 🙂

@fanden No, options are the same, but I always send reports to the remote server - unless its a troll server, but then I don't report at all, just suspend the whole server right away.

Ah, right. I'm just over here taking notes for when I get around to setting up a single user instance. I appreciate all the work you share, and your good (probably hard won) advice.
