Good luck!
- 5_minutes 9y agoGood argument, though pinboard has it's share of spam too. A good example is this one: https://pinboard.in/t:mac https://pinboard.in/t:mac Codez4Mac is always "just submitted". It's been like this for years. All from- https://pinboard.in/u:simensol/ https://pinboard.in/u:simensol/ Or look here: https://pinboard.in/t:app https://pinboard.in/t:app All the junk posts from heyyouapp, starting with "paid" I find it a pity that these obvious annoyance things for us users, don't get fixed at all. It really polutes the site and I can't imagine these things to be incredibly complex to circumvent, in the whole system that Pinboard is. Too busy taking baths filled with gold?
- idlewords 9y agoYou can just report this stuff and I'll fix it. The top users seems to have misconfigured something, or else is posting from the far future. I like spammers a lot because I can take their $11 and then shut down their account. Unfortunately, I don't get many.
