So much spam (kbin.social)

There seems to be a few waves of users created just to post spam specifically in kbin. It's quite strange as the posts are so obvious and they keep getting downvoted. I'm also blocking the users but I can't see a way to report them. Is there a better way to handle this situation?

They seem to only be in very specific mags like fediverse, tech, and science. All of which have many subscribers but only have @ernest as their mod (I think science has another but they're absent).

I think the short-term solution is a) to get a few more mods on these

and b) for now I subscribe to technology instead of tech and something on another instance called fediverse_press instead of fediverse

Yes I was noticing that trend with the specific mags, but was also wondering if it was just the ones I'm following and others have it but I don't see it

@Yprum I don't think so, because I sort by All/new fairly regularly (which is when I see these ones).
