I just found a handful of bots that are spamming lemmy and kbin communities for hours but this place here does not seem to do anything against it.
The only posts in the last 18 hrs seem to be bot posts.

Thanks for confirming. I‘m also unsubbing from all kbin communities since this stuff is still going.
I think you see something different on [email protected] than what kbin users see on [email protected].
I go to https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/[email protected]?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New, sorted by newest, and I see a lot of “ImNotBobDylan” clones spamming garbage links.
I go to https://kbin.social/m/tech/newest and I don’t see any BobDylans.
I go to https://discuss.tchncs.de/u/[email protected] and I see 3 spam posts.
I go to https://kbin.social/u/ImNotBobDylan1 and I see a 404 page. That user does not exist at kbin.social.
So, whatever is happening, I’m not sure kbin is the source of the problem. If it was, certainly we would see this user as well, right? I mean, it would at least explain why nobody is acting here… we can’t physically see the problem lol.
Positively baffling. Someone else commented that mods are removing these bot posts but lemmy federation does not get removed due to a bug. Not sure if thats the case but it would fit your explanation.
