I just noticed that half my front page is just durch posts from the same 6 day old account… does anyone else also experience this and if so how do I stop it??? No hate against Dutch people I just don’t speak the language and it’s annoying.

You will be assimilated, resistance is futile. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own.

As long as we get some of that sweet Dutch cycling infrastructure I welcome our new overlords.

As long as I get some stroopwaffle I guess that's ok.

There are only two things I can't stand in this world: People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

I quote this more than I care to admit.

This is more of a support question and belongs over in !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

I think dutch government created an instance to host their accounts recently. You may be seen that content.

AFAIK, it's a Mastodon instance, not Lemmy.

What account is it?

[–] everythingsucks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Let me tell you my favorite feature on Apollo. “Filter Subreddit”. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen the same article from a different news/world news/etc instance(? Sorry, not up with the vernacular yet) just blanketing my home page.

You just have to block the lemy.nl instance.
