Lemmy LACKS content so if we MIRROR everything from REDDIT we can make lemmy GOOD AGAIN.
How do you know how @time2lose@lemmy.world looks like?
hahaha. in mah basement too
I’m on board, give bots a chance!
REPOSTS belong in SHITPOSTING
CONTENT belongs in FUNHOLE
My next gif was literally going to be about Funhole making enough high quality OC to overcome any swarm of slop accounts
The more slop they post, the more Funhole memes
I should probably put my OC stuff on there then. It’s always been such a weird community that you don’t really know what it does until you’ve been on Lemmy for a while
It’s a place to post original fun content, it says in the sidebar.
Don’t tell me what to put in my fun hole. I’ll cram whatever I want in there, and deal with the shame during cleanup.
That’s the wonderful thing about Lemmy, you can easily block all of those bots and pretty much make it all disappear. There are even some instances that are just bots.
Sure, new bots will be popping up every now and then, but it’s pretty easy to remove the majority of the bot posts.
What’s with lemmy.zip and loving clankers?
Who said I love them? I don’t mind an occasional reddit repost bot that is limited to its specific community, but I absolutely despise AI slop posts and spam accounts.
They’re both the same thing and in another post I made there’s tons of accounts from that instance making clanker lover comments too.
I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
I’ve been guilty of using one back when I first started !liesofp@lemmy.zip, !bloodborne@lemmy.zip and !sekiro@lemmy.zip but that was three years ago as someone who was not active in any communities on reddit in my around 10 years of being on there outside the occasional comment. A critical mass of active users and posts is needed for people to engage with the community, leave comments, post themselves, and I was just one guy trying to build something from nothing. I don’t have a lot of original thoughts to share, so naturally I tried a bot out to have some semblance of activity over there. People complained about the constant bot posts, I gave it some thought and removed them in the end. Things have been going pretty well with !soulslike@lemmy.zip as a combined community, but it was definitely tough to get the ball rolling.
Nowadays, I’m not too fond of seeing bot posts myself, but I wouldn’t judge people who do use some in their communities especially if it’s limited to small communities that are yet to find their footing in the Fediverse.
I think doing that in your own community is totally different from doing it in other’s communities.
This is an original post
Something about this font makes the M look like rn, so I kept reading corn instead of com.
I noticed that too, it was a poor choice of font. Given this community though, it kind works. Here’s hoping nobody else has the same idea and starts another round of corn posting 🤮
Someone finding the IP that bot posts from could do so much damage to a website by either IP banning or just ddosing
