The best strategy is to ignore what the minority that attack people say and just block them...
Crazy thing is that a lot of the policing of other people's behaviour is even from people who haven't even been around for long. It's crazy seeing people trying to control other people's behaviour by attacking them and telling them "that's not how things are done here" when they've been on Mastodon for less time than the person they're policing!
