They’re all sent by a handful of recently created accounts.

Should there be an admin approval system for first posts, or something similar to slow down such attempts?

    Shadowbans require constant moderation and can easily be abused by ‘powermods’ to silence objective opinions.

    That’s one of the reasons reddit is so awful.

      All of these communities have mods that can do the exact same thing. I’m not sure why you think it’s any different here. Kinda hypocritical since you literally just called for people to use the report button, which is * taps sign * constant moderation.
