  • until 0.19.4 is released, clients are supposed to suppress comment contents when the comment is either marked as removed (moderator) or deleted (creator).

    they might decide to show contents to site admins or community moderators anyway, but some clients did not implement this properly and show the original content to all users.

    this is of course not something that should have been available to everyone in the first place, which is why this is being fixed in 0.19.4.

    depending on the client, you should still see some kind of indicator above the comment text that shows it was removed or deleted, in this case removed.












  • at that point you’ll just discourage any new users if they have to gamble on whether or not their content is actually seen by anyone. account age really isn’t a good indicator of anything other than soemone being dedicated enough to spam. considering this isn’t the first wave of csam attacks, i can assure you that whoever is targeting lemmy with this is determined enough that account age won’t deter them for long, they’ll just have to slightly adjust their playbook.
