Asklemmy

I was commenting on a lemmy.ml thread and must have triggered someone who had access to mlem accounts, presumably a developer. They used several accounts to instantly downvote me and upvote themselves. The account I was engaging with in retrospect had a lot of posts that indicated the user was unstable and I should have just ignored them - oops. I found that out because their comments to me were posted in the dunk tank and other users pointed out their comment history and the brigaded voting. I checked the upvotes and sure enough, the exact same accounts were going around immediately upvoting the user in their arguments (including the mlem acct). You would think someone who works with the ActivityPub protocol would be a little more discreet about their sock puppets, but apparently not.
