These people invested so much time and effort into their communities, I understand why they are doing all this to keep them
It’s interesting to see people talking about bots flooding some communities with content and others saying there’s not enough.
I created a bot, not to bring posts and comments from reddit but to use reddit as content curator, to bring links that were engaging there on to here.
However some people think theres a difference between users making a post with just a link to a news article or a bot doing it.
I think there’s a use for bots, when the content they bring is external to both reddit and lemmy, and discussion around it is organic.
I understand, there’s many people that want nothing to do with a community like that, me included, but ultimately it will being attention to it, because some sympathize with these points of view. Hopefully the admins of shitjustworks take measures to make sure there’s no racism on their instance.
I think this type of posts will have an opposite impact to what we want, we are just giving it the attention it needs to become what it was on Reddit, my recommendation? Block it immediately.
That makes sense
My question is: Why? When he was just focused on spaceX and Tesla very few times I would hear about this behavior (I might just live under a rock). But now that he is focused on Twitter it’s like he decided to be a piece of shit even more.
This is what I fear the most tbh
Meta’s incursion in the fediverse might cause very bad effects, there’s nothing preventing them from spitting ads from their new platform to all other platforms compatible with it.
I really hope that if we come to that, admins will defederate immediately.
Are you already defederating from suspicious instances? If not, What are you planning to do?
If you want to follow from kbin go to https://kbin.social/m/syncforlemmy@lemmy.world
Also you can use my browser extension and just click on the icon:
Kbin Link for Chrome
Kbin Link for Firefox
A kbin API is in the works, if we manage to make it compatible with lemmy this app would be usable for kbin as well.
Great news!, if kbin implements a lemmy-like (which is being discussed) api this app would be entirely compatible as well!
Even tho they didn’t move to the fediverse, I’m glad they left reddit.
This is my first time feeling part of an online community, it’s amazing!
I noticed the slowness when using the api, sometimes it wouldn’t even respond, thank you
Replace them with whom exactly? I’m sure that bringing people that want to mod in these conditions is a nice idea, I’m sure they’ll worry about the users and won’t powertrip at all
I literally just made this yesterday
This is why I stopped development of BotIt, if people don’t want it then I won’t continue making it
