Just an FYI, I generally ignore any reports that aren't hate speech or severe incivility. As far as spam goes as long as it's not on my server I ignore it unless it's done by one user and I can remove all their content with a few clicks.
It would be cool if one could choose where the report goes.
They go to nearly everyone.
If I on instance a report a post on instance b made by a user on instance c, all three instances' admins will receive the report, as well as the community on instance b.
It's kind of a mess, and definitely overkill.
Man, I really want Lemmy to succeed, but the more I learn about how things work behind the scenes the more I worry... Hopefully the developers can deal with these problems before/if there's another major influx of new users.
