Nicole got a new outfit!

Or maybe I haven't just seen this image yet? I've only gotten images where she seems to be wearing a grey jacket.

I am so happy the Fediverse chick wrote me a DM, which really means Lemmy is growing!
- It is showing that there's a lot of work to be done to deal with the spam issue. It's basically relying on every individual instance admin to moderate their stuff and defederate from other instances that drop the ball. If Lemmy gets big enough for spammers to really try to attack it, the admins will quickly get overwhelmed.
  
  This is from a Kbin/Mbin viewpoint, but from the very start a year or so ago spam was incredibly bad, usually porn. It was common to daily add more to the filter to see other postings. Then one day it got a lot better, either through a version update or better moderation control. I was even able to clear the old filters and not be flooded anymore. These pfishing attempts from Nicole and a few other names before her are the first ones I've seen in a long time. I just wish I could delete them from my PMs, for some reason that option isn't present at all.
  
  I think if you block the user that sent them it might delete the messages
  
  Just tried. It will only presumably stop new messages, but I can refresh and the old sent one is still there as well as the user name that shows it's blocked. Plus that wouldn't be a great workaround for normal messages of people you want to talk to and just are cleaning house. I don't know why the option isn't there. I put something about it on the main Mbin page a while back. Maybe not many people actually use messages?
  
  Funny enough after this conversation I received one of the messages. I blocked them and the message did dissappear. I wonder if maybe it was the timing or something? I'm using the Voyager app if that makes a difference.
  
  I'm sure it's Mbin specifically and just not in the software for some reason.
  
  Ya idk i thought it a bit weird too that we can't delete messages.
