Should we block zerobytes.monster? (programming.dev)

First happy new year everyone! Thanks a lot for all the work provided by admins and everyone involved in this lemmy instance.

Recently I am blocking all communities from zerobytes.monster instance personally. It just appears to be a ripoff some subreddits.

As there is no way to block all communities from some instance as a programming.dev user and as I feel these communities are mostly spam. I wonder if other people share the same feeling and if programming.dev should block them?

I hope I am asking via the correct channel. I don’t think this should be reported as I might also be in the minority and other people prefer to keeps these communities copied from reddit.

Your answer seems not to be well liked by all, but I agree that placing too much burden onto every participant will lead to less participation.

🤷‍♂️ Downvotes are meaningless, I'd rather see them give an actual counterargument if they have one but im used to it from reddit
