Hi, this is the first time I hear about it. Could you give me some more context? For example:
What is vlink cz?
Why is it bad?
Why should something be done about it?
Why should it be done by us?

MODERATORS
Go take a look at random on kbin.social
Yesterday it was all spam links to scam websites. I blocked it.
Maybe explain what it is for starters?
the website itself may not be malicious but it is being used for malicious intensions and a bot is being used
What does this mean? What is vlink cz?
I saw this! !Random@kbin.social is full of like bots posting these links I definitely would not click on.
I reported it and then blocked the board, awaiting the solution.
Here is some previous discussion on whether to defederate from them due to worries about their moderation capacity (and how it leads to spam/etc): https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1671319
So far, it seems that most of the spam etc isn’t making it through to people, which is great! It means we can keep things going as they are without it impacting people too much. Please use this thread to let me know if that changes though
Not federate with vlink, that's for sure.
Let people live.
