It seems this community is being targeted by ad bots. I see all of them come from a @szmer.info instance (or?). Maybe it should be banned?

Mod from !support@lemmy.world here.

We're currently trying to get in contact with them to maybe help and sort out the spam issue. (Link)

Saw the post here and thought I'll drop my 2 cents.

since it's a a smaller polish instance i'm not sure they're even aware that they are hosting bots and defederation should be the very last resort, so i's good the kbin team is reaching out.
