The user was banned immediately. Also rate limiting has been put in place on community creation. (Removing the communities takes some time however..)

do you also ban the IP or is it too much?

Lemmy doesn't have an option for that but we're looking into it

I used to use stuff that had IP banning and it would just mean when I was on mobile data I would just randomly not be able to use it because some dick was wanding around getting IP banned using mobile data.

People warrant IP banning userly are sad enough to find way of circumventing it and it'll probably just makes issues for other users instead.
