        I look forward to the day a documentary will be made about the 5 people/bots who serially post on Lemmy, possibly unaware they won’t be able to sell their account for karma, and what the people behind them look like/who they work for.

        “Da, good comrade, now do the one with the jealous girl looking at the boyfrend checkout other chick”

        “What caption?”

        “Something about Linux distros”

        “Ok, and now this one”

        “But this is straight from .ml propaganda stack, should we?”

        “JUST POST IT”

        It’s truly insane what these accounts pump out in “content” every day, and how it keeps getting upvoted.

        Mostly because that documentary would mean the fediverse became actually relevant.

        TLDR; Fediverse, lemmy particularly has very lazy bot detection (it’s basically on the people reporting them to mods, and then mods willing to do something), and is in the middle of being overrun by them, and their agendas are questionable.

          you mean we should report bots to the people running the bots? You know the folk who have bots set up to post everything on here, and then they make like one comment that isn’t automated a month so they can pretend it’s not a bot account and get around whichever instance admin’s have got a wedgie so tight they can taste it inconsistent and unwritten rules?

    Say what you want, but my 70+ yr old mom wanted a Volvo SUV because of all the safety features. But that doesn’t prevent her from jumping curbs and whatnot.

    She refuses to use the backup camera. Salma the brakes every 5 seconds when backing into a spot, but always looking in the mirror. Also can’t functionally use the GPS is there’s a curve involved.
