Hey everyone. Today I started noticing some people from eviltoast.org spamming the same message over and over again in comment sections (might even be the same person). I took a look at their instance and it doesn't seem to be a very old instance, and it seems like its not a bad place, except for this spammer. I already blocked one account but not too long after encountered the account in the link above. So after I block this guy too, and after reading this comment thread it seems its a bot and they will simply be back with more accounts. What do we do in this situation? Is the only option to simply block them every time we encounter one of their accounts?

I been banning the accounts (and removing everything they have posted) as I randomly come across them/they get reported. So if you report the account everything will get removed as soon as I see it. They been spamming from other instances not just eviltoast.org tho.
