The ones that bug me the most come out of nowhere, make 30 to 50 posts in an hour, then delete themselves.

I stay on top of it in my communities and ban them as soon as I see them, but they still flood new and other communites that are basically unmodded. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

I still sincerely want to know what are they trying to accomplish? What is their end goal? And then after all the things they upload, why do they delete their accounts? Who are they? Is there something nefarious going on here? I'm pretty sure there is no money involved in Lemmy so it can't be financially motivated, or is it?

I PM'd one of the accounts before they self immolated and got AN answer, I don't BUY the answer, but it is AN answer. ๐Ÿ˜‰

That is an interesting & weird answer he gave ๐Ÿค” I wonder how far he goes to reduce his social media footprint and why he goes to such extreme efforts? I wonder if he buys a new burner phone every time he makes a new social media account then shitposts everywhere then deletes everything. Very weird. What are his motivations & end goals?? There is no financial gain, there is no social gain, what else would people's motives be?
