Incredulous Amount of Spam in Community Tab

Hello everyone, I haven’t looked at the Community Tab for a couple weeks and was astounded to see how much spam has filled up on there.

Previously, the spam we were seeing was off-topic, random posts from users: The Community Tab is Chaotic

Most of that was curbed, but now we’re seeing something much worse, automated bot spam with potentially harmful links.

Straight from the “Recommendation” tab:




I see that many users are reporting these, but they’re still rampant. Something’s got to be done about this, maybe requiring accounts to be a certain level to post. I have articles about some fun 3D printing stuff that I was planning on posting there, but I’m dissuaded to post on the Community Tab by all this spam. Hopefully @Tanklet @BambuLab or some other admin can do something about this.
