Hola all!

Joined lem a week ago. So far I’m really happy that this is a slow community. It’s not hyper-consumer news and I don’t get to see 500 new posts about people punching each other or what trump did like 10 minutes ago.

Just wondering from some of the comments, some people either feel like really drone minded or having a hard time to accept the sun is blue, just because.

Makes me wonder some of them are actually bots. Not saying this as in derogatory way. Compared to Reddit, how is the bot situation on lemmy? How often the data is being scraped off and used to manipulate people here?

    Bots outpaced humans officially online like 3 months ago.

    Sure that this wasn’t in 2016?

      Not according to the random news article posts that were popping up on here around that time.

      Maybe they just then figured how to confidently measure it?
