Well that's fucking horrible. Jesus christ on a bicycle.

Thank you for your work.

That also means that they could post to other communities, so I guess moderators need to be vigilant

is there a list somewhere including detailed descriptions of the tools needed?

My field is QA but i'm reasonably competent in a few scripting languages (mainly JS, but can also code in python and C#)

they would probably not be browser embedded, at least not at first, but i can dedicate a couple evenings a week to writing tools so long as there is a specification

What's CSAM

Are they only posting to this one community? If so, why? Would closing this community not just make them post on a different one?

I had no idea that this was going on. I expect that, like me, most people are horrified.

I do think if the platform needs to grow more, we need more full time devs working on it and building it up to par. Good time to start funding campaign for Lemmy

isn't this what 8cjan is for? Seriously what the fuck is wrong with people who think that CSAM is appropriate shit post material. The Internet really is a fucked up place. is there a way to setup something to automatically remove inappropriate posts similar to YouTube's system of automatically removing inappropriate contents?

My guess is butthurt trumpolinas whose memes could not gain traction and were shat upon.

That sucks! I saw one of these things and reported it. If you need moderators for when it opens I'm willing to help.

What stops them from posting across other instances? I'm surprised they spam stuff in that specific instance instead of all over.

Have you reported this to the FBI?

CSAM (Child Sexual Assault Material) posts

The federal governments of several nations should be in pursuit of this, and IP addresses and specific time logs shared.

Just saw this: That is fucking awful. Thank you for your service to the community and for protecting us from seeing that shit.
