This was great, read all of his posts and subscribed. Cheers for sharing!
The sequel is way funnier than this post, the people over at hackernews really take themselves too seriously lmao.
Suspicious account with only one post is commenting a hyperlink
Why the fuck does Aussie zone block so many instances? You guys okay out there?
No wonder I am not seeing shit, how do I see what’s blocked?
Move to another instance?
Any sites that give me a list of what an instance has blocked or not blocked? To pick an instance
Seems to suggest there are only 9 defederated from Aussie.zone out of 1600?
Those three are a good place to start with sane defaults.
For absolutely no filter there’s https://lemm.ee/
There is also https://lemmy.world/ which is so generalized as to come under fire from the far left and the far right.
More exclusive than the above but more inclusive than aussie.zone are the following.
Your mileage may vary.
A full list of who’s federated with who doesn’t yet exist to my knowledge. However you can use https://defed.xyz/ to check specific instances
This is largely the problem with most social media, and generative AI has made this problem worse just like it has made other pretty terrible facets of human interactions worse.
Anyone who was paying attention on reddit the last couple years (even pre-pandemic) could see that bots were taking over. The main difference (love mods or hate them) was that mods who’s subreddits didn’t rely on bot content to stay active were moderating the bot problem as best they could.
Now, most of those mods aren’t mods anymore and the vast majority only really want the engagement anyway so of course they’ll let bots basically take over.
Reddit the corp never cared about keeping bots off the platform and they care even less now. Bot engagement counts. Bot views of ads count. Removing bots actively hurts their bottom line in the short term so of course they aren’t going to do anything with that.
The actual human users on Reddit don’t care because they’re there to consume. It doesn’t matter to them if the posts they engage with are made by bots or not.
they have been actively culling human users for months now, leaving mostly bots.
Meaning you’re insane now right? Who would want to read a insane’s ramblings?
Reddit is full of Karma farmers.
I still use Reddit for the funny videos and nieche communities I don’t get on Lemmy. But I have to constantly block accounts because they are blatantly farming. Super annoying.
I usually block every account that’s reposting and has more than 100k Karma.
At least something is happening there. Look around Lemmy. No bots, no humans, no posts, no life.
Hey, I might not be any of those things, but I’m here!
@Lembot_0002@lemm.ee
@Thomas2024@feddit.org how do you do, fellow humans?
<ANSWER_GOOD><GREET, 11> RTM. END_MSG.
This account is a violent transphobic troll.
They post transphobic comments and calls for violence then whine about being banned from trans-friendly communities because they “just want some reasonable freedom to say what I want”
Dude Lemmy feels so much more alive. On Reddit I have like 100 comments and 0 Karma and 0 responses. No interaction at all. Every upvoted comment is just some random generic garbage farming for validation. Lemmy is SO much more live!
On Reddit I have thousands of comments, over 240,000 karma, and I haven’t logged in in around two years.
But then, like with Lemmy, I picked my subreddits carefully and left when it seemed like they were being overrun with bots.
Bye then. Best of luck out there, friend.
You’re not locked in here… door’s right there whenever
Go scroll “All”. Find places where things are happening. Engage.
Hmm, looks like you haven’t been here long. We have our share of each.
Well said, Lembot.
Why, you didn’t even post this!
