    Recently one of the posts I made got a porn spam comment and I also saw a lot of porn spam in my instance's communites. Also just now I got an abusive DM telling me to kill myself and accusing me of being an astroturfer.

    Has anyone else experienced anything like that lately or is it just me?

        I created it a while back because I thought having the username occupied would prevent this sort of thing from happening. I was more naive back then and didn't think someone would be pathetic enough to use misspellings and lookalikes to get around that πŸ˜”.

          Yes I know this is excessive and I created many of them either when I was less sure of the Fediverse or because I wanted some activity separation in who I follow or communities I'm part of. And also because of Federation issues as well. I also was kind of hoping Lemmy would have something in the future where accounts like this can be merged into a single nomadic account. I had heard of something like that but I can't find it now πŸ˜•

            it looks like you've been getting targeted for abuse by a feddit.org admin, saying you're the same person for upvoting the db0 thread about feddit.org being zionist

            Wow... that... I have no words for that. That is beyond despicable. I had a feeling things were bad when I saw the governance thread but that's way way worse than I thought.

                Im not sure about the porn spam, but the abusive dm is probably from the Feddit.org admin acussing you of being an astrosurfer https://lemmy.zip/post/58901499/24578452 @Astertheprince@lemmy.dbzer0.com

                No I didn't, though. There is legitimately someone who has been doing this stuff for at least eight months now and I originally thought it was another antiyanks attack, but other admins told me that transphobia is untypical of antiyanks.

                Also if you can link the account, I would gladly ban it at least from Feddit.

                  just as an FYI, it looks like you've been getting targted for abuse by a feddit.org admin, saying you're the same person for upvoting the thread about feddit.org being zionist

                  edit, as the admin in question replied to me and is banned, so I can't respond otherwise:

                  @Emopunker@feddit.org, the MeanwhileonGrad comm is a cesspool, you posted there in a thread complaining about your instance getting defederated for its rampant zionism. You used your ability as an admin to view the votes on that thread and complained about users who upvoted the thread.

                  "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?"

                  They then started getting DM harassment, along with other people who have been vocally anti-zionist lately.

                  Nobody said it's literally you doing it, however it is you who are the one fanning the flames.

                  No. I said I had the feeling that the accounts could be associated with each other. Also I never contacted Aster or any of the others in the screenshot. There is a troll trying to get both at me and at other users and trying to fan the flames.
