The past couple of days I’m constantly being signed out. I have to login several times a day, practically every time I visit.
This seems to happen much more frequently on the mobile version of the site, and whatever Artemis is using to scrape data.
Yes. I`ve been seeing it as well in the last 2-3 days on Firefox on mobile. Being logged out 2-3 times a day.
In fact I just had to login to post this comment.
Is this thread monitored? Asking because, from what I observed, that federated Hexbear(dot)net users and communities don’t seem to be possible to block. Or should I use the contact form?
I can’t post but I can comment. It keeps giving me the error page. Other people seem to still be able to post on Kbin - anyone have any insight into this problem?
Was wondering what happened to your flood of posts. Guess the error is not local to me.
I just confirmed it’s not just images I can’t upload.
Even text threads do that thing where “We’re Working On The Error” comes up and a phantom thread no one but you can see shows up on your profile.
As you say though, other threads origination on kbin.social are showing up so some posters are managing to get though?
It’s become impossible to browse by new thanks to an army of spam bots.
Every time I sort by new, there are several new groups of 3-5 new users posting to “random” all at once (so 12-15 spam posts for every 5-10 legit posts), I haven’t risked the click, but it’s a lot of promises of nudes or gold, or celebrity names, you know, bait.
I’ll block and report one post from each user as spam, but that seems pointless when there’s a seemingly endless stream of them popping up.
My feed sorted by new now, 8 of the 10 first posts are these bots:

Is there anyway to stop this (beyond blocking m/random which I’ve now done but don’t want to)?
I can’t see pinned posts at the moment. It seems like I can see them if I log out. I can’t seem to find a setting that would cause this that I could have changed to cause it.
