So, uhm, what the hell is going on with all these ad posts I’m seeing in this community?

It is an issue if you change instance, which you may do more often than creating new accounts on traditional social media. And again, I just find it kind of unwelcoming.

Maybe automatically creating a report to just check the post for spam when a new user posts would be nice? Then a mod can check it out but it's not removed automatically or blocked.

Again, only for like a week...

There's no valid reason to keep constantly churning accounts.

There is if you wish to change instance, for example if your admins do something you don't like. That's a perfectly valid reason.

We can disagree, it's okay. You don't have to downvote just because you disagree.
