    There are bots on Lemmy already but they don’t argue and they only post article links to some community.

    Lemmy is pretty much there, mods are already power hungry banning left and right over hurt feelings, toxic people who debate by insulting and calling names. Racism.

    This place is already fucked

    There’s a lot more rabid commies around though

    And also bots

    One echo chamber vs another

    That’s a great observation BoredGamer! 👀

    We here on Lemmy are definitely all human🧍and not bots 🤖unlike Reddit. That is why our conversations here — such as this one — are so natural, genial, and genuine. ❤️🗣️🍍

    Howdy, fellow humans!

    It’s a good day to be breathing air.

    um… my favorite hobby is drinking water…

    (Seriously tho, I already sus 50% of Lemmy users too, a lot of front page posts have the weird “mainstream social media uncanny feel” to it, at this point I treat the social-media/forums as entertainment, I don’t really take it too seriously. If I didn’t witness it myself, it can be potentially fake. That’s how I operate in this world)

      And gun nuts. Link any article about armed police or military and you get dissertations about what is an assault rifle or not as if it makes any fucking difference.

    At least on Lemmy people are real

    We may be generally in the clear right now, but don’t assume that any particular forum or social medium is immune to being hijacked by astroturfing or botting

      I’ve seen a bot or two, I don’t think we are in the clear.

      The latest one I saw was using a vision model so it’s able to comment on photos and memes. I should have taken a screen shot of that one, it had clearly misunderstood the meme and gave a definition of what a balloons is because of it (the memes was about cops always shooting the black balloons).

        Interesting. I’d like to know more about this if you can provide any further info (ex. what community or instance was the post on, how recently was the bot comment).

        I’ve definitely seen a number of sus accounts but they’re usually few and far between, and oftentimes get addressed immediately. There is a problem with how bad actors can join so many different instances or create instances of their own to cause problems.

        EDIT: I think I’ve found it. Doesn’t seem to be a full on bot account but the comment is AI slop that a human probably chose to comment for whatever reason

    Chowderhead doesn’t deserve a meme. Here are Shredder, Bluey Bandit, and Calvin to use instead :

    The only real way to escape corporate enshittification and bots is to just pick up and move whenever marketing ghouls start to show up. Im quite happy with lemmy and the fediverse right now, but Im under no illusion this place will last more than like 3 years tops before its time to move on to the next platform with a user base small enough that its not worth astroturfing with ads and corpo propaganda
