I immediately block them as soon as I realize they're a repost bot. Has cleaned up my feed nicely.

Just sucks that every new user will have to jump through hoops and block a dozen accounts before Lemmy is useable.

Not to mention that even opening some of the bot accounts pages to block them crashes the page sometimes because they have so many posts

Good thing I can block them just from their post. Some Lemmy apps are cool.

(on Liftoff i can, on thunder I can't).

Yes thankfully I realized this after a bit because I could not click in and block due to crash!
