@LMAO is flooding the site with random communities because they're salty about being banned for claiming too many community names. They claim they're trying to "fuck your entire site up" but I imagine it's a relatively quick fix to delete all the communities they're creating, LMAO.
When people previously discussed this on Lemmy, the concern would be that bad actors would create multiple accounts to get around that rule.
But again, the lock on a door doesn't guarantee your house won't get broken into, it only has to deter them with extra effort/risk that they will be less likely to do it.
I honestly can't imagine modding more than 2 communities at once. Do these people not have real lives?
paid trolls are a thing...
Of course, like I said, it doesn't need to keep out everyone, just preventing the lowest effort trolls would make life a lot easier for the mods/admins.
Don't let perfection stand in the way of progress.
If you want to mod 200 subs but you're limited to 5-10 per account it is much much harder than being able to do it on a single account
