based on the list of instances made by @sunaurus@lemm.ee here - Thank you again for that work, it’s highly appreciated.

This is a preventive measure against massive amounts of accounts being created for botting purposes. Most instances banned appear to be 1 user instances so we don’t think this will have a great effect on anyone’s usage of Beehaw. If you are an admin of one of those instances, feel free to contact us at support@beehaw.org

    Thank y’all for being so proactive. I’ve been dismayed at the spike in Lemmy users over the past few days. The number of instances popping up with many thousands of accounts is suspicious.

    Thank you again for working so hard to keep this space “clean”.
