The community is only 13 days old. Frequently I see post on all from either the mod or new accounts all ranting about bch or related sites and they’re all super excited to tell you about it. I mean look at the pinned post and replies for goodness sake.

All new accounts. All just loving bch so much and super excited to tell you about it. A lot of the posts have strikingly similar formats too. Like bold sub-title paragraph of text and repeat. Reeks of botting/astroturfing. Just me or nah? Im going to post again regarding lemmy being cool with bots auto posting links to off site frequently, but that’s a rant for another day.

    Obviously it is. Just block it. I guess most if not all current lemmy users are smart enough to not invest into crypto.

    Edit: to seriously invest into crypto

      I guess most if not all current lemmy users are smart enough to not invest into crypto.

      I mean, I’ll admit, I have a couple hundred bucks I threw at some alt coins that has fluctuated in value quite a bit… but its as more of a “fuck it” experiment instead of “The Next Coming of Econonomic JesusThat Will Make You Unfathomably Rich” like these fuckheads prattle about.

          Yup, I got about $100 there because I played with mining eth a couple of winters ago. (Kept my room nice and warm). Literally just a “let’s see how this works” sort of experiment.

      That is the best suggestion but it fixes the problem for only me. Lemmy seems to be getting more and more users so the amount who lack the knowledge to avoid such communities will grow.
