Concerning harassements in a fediverse (lemmy.ml)

If say a harasser, after getting banned let’s presume, goes to another instance and create another account to keep harassing, is there anything one can do?

I mean a lot of this would depend on the situation. You could basically try to get their IP and maybe put it under the hashtag #fediblock, maybe other admins will block it, but seems unlikely. It would be nice if we could have a regex based block function, but we don't currently. You could change your username and picture to make it harder to find you, but I don't know what other tools you might have.
