That is a great origin story for a username; what made you decide to stick with it?

What do you mean hyperinflation, Argentina is clearly the epitome of a stable free market economy.

There’s nothing wrong with those kind of bots But when you take an instance for example granitestate.social, I think that’s what it’s called, which when I was looking into it had 100,000 inactive accounts sat there doing nothing.

These bots that have been created over the course of maybe a week could be used to spam or brigade instances. Emphasis on COULD, maybe they just sit there. Who knows?

But many instances took to purging idle bot accounts that had been created on their instances and defedrating from instances that had excessive numbers of bots

These idle accounts are hard to detect, so only when they appear in large quantities are they removable.

Just to clear up really I guess, I’m not talking about a Reddit repost bot or twitter scraper, more large amounts of bot spam.

I want to remind everyone that Lemmy has had a bot crisis, a while ago I did some research into botted instances and I estimated something like 40% of user accounts are bots. Although this was a while ago so I’m not sure if that is remotely accurate anymore

Many instances will have taken steps to start purging user accounts, at the scale of Lemmy, that downturn could be entirely explained by these bots being removed

Obviously some users will leave but i do feel it’s worth noting this fact

We have hit the critical mass; and that is a cause for celebration. A month ago when I joined, I thought that people would come, post a bit. See the limited content and leave. And I will admit it was painful to use Lemmy back then since a solid 90 percent of posts where about the site or were rips from Reddit. Fingers crossed for the future of Lemmy

Here’s a comment I saw here a while ago, but when exoduses occur, the site becomes a shithole of far right ideas. Since the far right tends to stay put for whatever reason. I think they used Reddit predcessor as an example but I’m not totally sure

This was thrown around a couple of weeks before the Reddit migration really kicked off, it appears to be excessively difficult to code. And it also doesn’t really fit with the system that Lemmy runs. It’s a great idea, but Ive been lead to believe that it is too difficult to create Although people do feel that account transfer would be a nice feature

Hey can you post an update at some point, I’m interested to see if you manage to lower the radicalising content.

Reason and critical thinking is all the more important in this day and age. It’s just no longer taught in schools. Some simple key skills like noticing fallacies or analogous reasoning, and you will find that your view on life is far more grounded and harder to shift

This is such a Reddit comment

Your amazing :)

I think he’s talking about the people who don’t do anything but look for hateable things about the CCP

Do remember that the OP is on beehaw.org which is NOT run by genocide denying tankies. It just runs their software and the tankies don’t have any control over that code its explained well in the docs.
