Thank you for your service 🫡

No worries. Even more unfortunately:

https://kbin.social/u/kostyassmchuk

https://kbin.social/u/nipa

Wonder if these all originate from the same IP address and, if yes, if there's a way of banning accounts from specific IP addresses.

I think your wish may have already been answered...

You may be right because the sdgfdg@kbin.social account is now doing the same thing

That one may have been bombed off now also...🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏼

Is there anything practical that I, or another average user can do to help practically in these situations?

I just block those accounts, we as users cannot do much more, I think

I hate doing that - unless the admins use multiple people blocking the account as a signal

You can report a post. It will even tell you if it has already been reported. I do not know who receives this report. I report and then block this type of thing.
