You'll never fully be able to escape crazies in a network built out of human beings. That said:
It's important to remember a lot of people in the Lemmy-verse are there because they were banned from Reddit for being too obnoxious.
The next update will allow users to block entire instances which should help cut down on some of that
Also, moderation here is way more lenient than other platforms.
I believe part of what you may be seeing was a bug that was preventing moderation actions from federating properly. Fixed in 0.18.5
Yes the KBin spam issue right? Also because it's decentralized a bad actor can start their own instance and moderate however they want.
Kbin moderation actions being incompatible with Lemmy's is a different issue as far as I'm aware.
