Probably a dumb question, but I have to report pretty much the same post (some website-link + some mentioned usernames, but always sent from different instances) multiple times a day.

The weird thing is, that this happens only here in this community, and not in any else I have subscribed to.

Is this some targeted attack, because due to the self hosting, we’re a more valuable victims, or is it just due to time shift because the mods are in a different time zone and asleep when we report the posts?

I think the latter one isn’t the case, since there are many active moderators here :)

Is there something we can do about it?

    Them turning it up would be good. Also shouldn’t there be a duplicate post check built into the platform?

      They’re not exact replicas. Enough a difference to fool the algorithm.
