So I love using lemmy, but I browse all a lot in order to discover more communities as Lemmy is still growing a lot.

However, I’m really annoyed with the lemmit.online bot. For those unfamiliar, users can request the bot to automatically x-post popular post to Lemmy. The annoying thing is that these posts are almost never interacted with as they are clearly marked as bot posts.

I can’t seem to find a way to block the user account or lemmit.online as a whole.

Anyone face the same issue and have a solution?

    I was able to just block the user but I had to do it from the desktop site. Blocking wasn’t working for me from any of the apps at the time. Login on the website and click on the bot username then there will be a Block User button from their page. You won’t see their posts anymore from the website or the app your using.

      Thanks! This is the most obvious answer, no more annoying Lemmit posts in my all feed.
