The battle against spam signups to Infosec.exchange continues. At least a hundred so far. And zero spams sent. I suspect the actor here will get annoyed soon and try a ddos next. Time to accelerate that move behind fastly.

@jerry sorry for my ignorance, but is the process of filtering out the spam accounts totally manual?

@jerry Jerry, are you still doing this as a one-llama-admined site? Do you want or need help?

(I believe I remember you have moderation help)

@jerry From posts made by other admins, it appears to be a broad-spectrum campaign across many instances - so the spammer may not be paying enough attention to even notice where it's being countered.

@jerry are they registering and deleting their own accounts? Each time a user deletes their own account it queues jobs to every known instance and basically creates a huge queue.

@jerry
I'm sorry running this federated neighborhood is practically a second full-time job.
Thank you for keeping it safe.
