So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

Is there an equivalent of "going dark" in lemmy? Like if there is some "global" or "fediverse" issue that communities want to protest, is there the same option as back on Reddit that they are using now?

The closest thing I could think of is other instances blocking the troublesome one. Maybe if they add support for moving your account to another instance, then you could just move in protest.

This is it. Once import/export is available, it would be easy enough to just move over to another instance and not deal with whoever is running your current one. I doubt we would ever see any major issues with Lemmy itself, given the open source nature.
