I like the first two ideas but a problem with the third is most lemmy users are gonna be techies who probably use a VPN which means they’ll have to cycle through a few nodes before getting one that works (if they even realize that’s where the problem lies)
VPN endpoints would not necessarily have low IP reputation. A VPN provider that allows its users to spam the internet is probably not a good one anyway. And besides, that would not inhibit registration, it would just make users fill out a form to apply so the server operator would have to go through and approve it.

Good to know, thank you!
