My entire Lemmy feed is 1 single user (bot?) reposting the same link across communities

Is there anything I can do about duplicates? I use Sync for Lemmy on Android.
Block that bot user?
How do u do this on sync? There is several annoying bots i want to block but clicking the name of the bot doesn't do anything.
If you can't find the option to block in your preferred app, you can always go to your instance in a browser and block the user in your settings.
3 dot menu on the post, then click on the user in the menu. That will take you to their profile so you can block them. Also, I believe clicking on the user/community name is a toggleable option in sync.
The bot doesn't have a profile? If it does, you have to go there then scroll to the right:
On a post in the feed, hit the three dot button and filter out that user/community or instance. If you want to block rather than just filter, go to the bot user profile and hit block in the top bar.
That's a stupid question. ;)

Explain
FWIW, I (obviously) understood that reference and upvoted you :)
Not remembering a joke from an episode that aired 25 years ago doesn't really rank high on most people's shame-o-meters, my dude
