With all due respect, if you have three or more, I'm not sitting here and clicking through each and every account to create a report, you're going to get a DM or an email.

Re: I'm getting a lot of "please use the Mastodon report function to tell us about the Russian disinformation accounts we are hosting".
iftas@mastodon.iftas.org admin@hear-me.social we get that crap a lot too, but we have a post queue that catches the first post for any account. (NodeBB, not Mastodon)
It does unfortunately increase workload, and spammers are starting to use AI to craft innocuous messages to get past manual detection, but it might be the next needed step.
@julian since these bots follow a fixed pattern (silence for a few days, temporary IP addresses, email domains, etc.), I tend to suspend them on Mastodon as a precaution. Mastodon's advantage is its appeal mechanism, which works very well.
On Friendica, the situation is less straightforward, because there's no appeal: the suspension can't be revoked, and while it's possible to block an account without suspending it, there's no communication channel between the user and the administrator.
On Lemmy, things are even stranger: lately, we've had several users register but don't post anything. I believe these are manual registrations by actors trying to manage their accounts with the Mastodon APIs... In any case, even though Lemmy lacks a post-ban communication channel, the measures are revocable.
On NodeBB, however, I'm not prepared. Our citiverse.it is still small and in six months we haven't had any moderation problems, but honestly I don't even know if there is a system for appeals and ban revocation.

RT by [@KyivIndependent](https://nitter.oksocial.net/KyivIndependent): My latest review for [@KyivIndependent](https://nitter.oksocial.net/KyivIndependent). Dmitry Bykov’s biography of President Zelensky is an odd, bloated hagiography with many flaws.

in reply to Hamburg Journal (inoffiziell) • • •Diese Zebrastreifen können dann sinnvoll sein, wenn dafür der Fußverkehr gezielt nur dort den Radverkehr kreuzt. Aber man hat ja schon im Video im Hintergrund gesehen, dass der Fußverkehr die Radwege auch an anderen Stellen genutzt hat.
So oder so finde ich, dass gerade größere Haltestellen mehr wie die Haltestellen Burgstraße oder Steintordamm aufgebaut sein sollten, d.h. mit einer physikalischen Trennung zwischen den beiden Verkehrsformen, so dass die Anzahl der Kreuzungspunkte massiv reduziert ist.
