If this were implemented on Lemmy:

  1. Post disinfo
  2. Block all users that attempt to fact-check your post, preventing them from seeing any other posts you make
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until banned
  4. Create new account and pre-populate your blocklist with previously blocked users
  5. Repeat steps 1-4 forever

The best part was changing the error message to "something went wrong, try again later," just to lie to people and waste their time.

Oh dang, nice find. I wasn't even thinking about Reddit.
