Just an FYI that there’s been a bit of spam here recently, which @_FJ typically hides before I even see it. So, thank you sir.

FYI I’ve tweaked the settings here so that only 2 ‘flag as spam’ notices from _any_ user are required to hide a post. So the message is: use that feature! Hit the `…` icon at the bottom of a post, then the flag, then flag as spam. Thanks!

I’ll just bump this for visibility. Thanks @cygnoir for spotting and flagging the latest post.
