At this point, it’s become a bit meme on Reddit to share the creepy or disgusting DMs you receive. However, nothing like that has happened to me here yet, even though I’ve been active for the equivalent of three or four of those pervy chat invitations on Reddit. I’m no less active here.
Oh man you missed out on Nicole the fediverse chick
Omg I forgot about her!
Same! For good reason, too.
i don’t think we never knew if it was her or someone else using her pictures pretending to be her
I actually dug into her (I was bored) and ended up finding her. The photo was really old but she seems to be doing well. Idk what the point of the message spam was though or why they’d use her picture
I’m 51% sure it was spam/malware. I feel like I recall reading something that said something along the lines of they were sending messages out so that when the picture loaded they’d get location/ip data of the users who opened the message
I still hold the fact that she contacted me as a badge of honor
I got messages from that account, but none of them were creepy, disgusting, or pervy. They seemed like a social experiment or some such.
I didn’t reply though. Maybe people who interacted with the account got something more explicit.
I erased that dm from my memory. I had to check, i had dms from Nicole and missy29
I had never ever gotten a DM on Reddit, but I also only had like 800 total karma across all accounts.
Lemmy is SO so so so much smaller. They have to be real desperate to try here, especially when reddit is a thing that exists. Everybody say, “thank you, reddit!”
We’re what… 1% of the size of Reddit? Less? (Lemmy+Piefed, not the whole Fediverse). To set up custom APIs and annoyances for what would probably be almost insta-banned doesn’t seem worth it compared to Reddit who will happily allow you to send to near everyone. Hell a basic NSFW subreddit is probably magnitudes larger than all of us.
Be the change you want to see in the world!The reason is that only girls are allowed to horny post on Lemmy. And everyone else is confined to https://fedinsfw.app/.
only girls are allowed to horny post on Lemmy.
Vile-let comes to mind…
Ever heard of Nicole?
At this point, it’s been less than an hour. How many jokers have sent you creepy DMs?
I’ve gotten one and can teach you how if you’d like to know
Well, one reason is I didn’t know about you until now.
This is not reddit. No one wants it to be either. You should let that go and stop trying to make this place like reddit.
Amusing that the comments are like “but don’t you know about that one person?”
It’s been known to happen. Tho all the cases I have seen of it were mods or admins of questionable instances/comms sending the creepy DMs and those getting posted to the various mod abuse communities.
Even if we did, we shouldn’t feed the narcissist.
