Yes, but this also blocks helpful bots, for example link converters. I'd like to block the x-post spam but keep the utility from other bots.
Yeah, understandable. On Lemmy World we defederate with those kind of instances because we know most of our users don't want that stuff.
Luckily the next version of Lemmy is around the corner and then you should be able to block those instances yourself.
