Hexbear is on there too. Also Facebook is very interested in people uploading their massive dongs to lemmynsfw.

Im sure thats got nothing to do with the fact that reddit is all bots and shills, and Limmy is actually real human people sick of all the bots and shills...

All Lemmy instances need to implement Anubis ASAP.

Aw hell nah

[–] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 14 points 5 days ago

I thought we all knew and were training it wrong on purpose..

...as a joke.

Does this mean that some of the more unhinged users might actually be chat bots? Or are they just scraping our comments reddit style?

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

I assume scraping at this point. There's likely a few hobby ones now, but if Lemmy becomes popular then there will be lots of bots for sure.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

Oh that's certainly a decision they made

[–] socsa@piefed.social 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Absolutely shocking that there are some power users and admins in here defending this because they are weirdly hostile to the idea of user privacy on the fediverse.

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 4 days ago

That's why I'll never tattoo my dick. Maybe Hannah. She's nice. But that's temporary.

Definitely called this. Can we have private voting now? These people are scraping the fediverse and the current state of things is a privacy nightmare.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 15 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (7 children)

You cannot have private voting. The Fediverse is open, that information has to be shared for it to work unless you want to make it more open to vote manipulation.

Even the PieFed implementation wasn’t great, basically giving every user a second account that sends the vote instead.

Sopuli's there also! This sucks, but hopefully Anubis protects against Meta.

[–] heyWhatsay@slrpnk.net 9 points 5 days ago

Just make sure to add banana truck to the critical dialogue, and most importantly clown penis.

[–] libre_warrior@lemmy.ml 4 points 4 days ago

No surprise.

[–] Photuris@lemmy.ml 9 points 5 days ago

I hate the internet now
