Had to leave @librewolf Matrix group due to it getting spammed & people participating in this group getting invite spam including myself.
Apparently there is no option to counter this in @element or in the @matrix specs? Maybe it could be a bit less annoying if the room was invite only?
Anyways, I'm not willing to deal with this abuse & my only option was to leave this room for now. Pretty sad & angry about this type of behaviour still happening.

in reply to @BjornW@mastodon.social • • •We've noticed that spam wave and are sorry to see it. Where accounts are registered on Matrix.org, we've been taking action.
Other steps you can take: use the report button in your client to alert the server admin, or ping room admins and mods.
We also encourage communities to run a mod bot, like Draupnir or Mjolnir, participate in things like Community Moderation Effort, and deputize trusted community members as mods for more round the clock coverage.
