For example:

  • bots everywhere
  • astroturfing
  • repost bots being sold to spread propaganda
  • etc.

This is my worry for the Web. Lemmy seems even more open than Reddit was (less bot prevention). Maybe Lemmy will get beefier protection as time goes on?

    With the influx of people atm, this might get done eventually. I guess scaling is the most pressing matter right now. I truly hope people see the benefit of staying on a FOSS platform, even in the event that Reddit reverses course. This will encourage the devs to keep working and might have other devs chip in. Jerboa seems to have received quite a few more contributors recently.
