The influx of new users here has also encouraged a lot of unsavory denizens to relocate here as well.

I've already been harassed by a user and I am seeing a few trolls here and there posting with impunity and provoking users. We need better moderation or else shit will go downhill very fast here.

You can block stuff you don't like. Memes and rage bait go first. Sub to content you like. Lots of good discussions I'm seeing off main subs. Heck even main subs are "fresher." Maybe change instances to one that already defederates stuff you don't like by default.
