This spammer created multiple accounts on various Lemmy instances to post self advertisements. How do we combat this?

report the posts, the moderators will ban the profiles.
Do kbin and lemmy allow you to report accounts to the instance admins? I’m still used to Mastodon, where you report spam to the instance admins and they boot the accounts. That wold solve the problem at the source rather than make magazine/community mods have to play whack-a-mole.
Kbin has a report function, although I don't know if reports Federate. They might not.
Lemmy does do reporting, although it's not clear whether it's just moderators, or whether the admins will also receive them.
