For real this seems like a major red flag.

From where I sit, this instance of Lemmy is too small to worry about bots denying the users. 😉
Is it? I myself have gone to post something I found interesting, and saw a bot beat me to the punch. I feel it hurts the smaller communities even more. You end up with those bot post graveyards. Though, I get this a complete non-issue to some; It’s why I suggested letting the communities and moderators themselves decide. I see no harm in that.
My personal preferences make me more likely to comment and contribute to content posted by other humans. I get lemmy is small right now, but I don’t see why communities should wait to address these bots when they are already clearly a divisive subject.
The problem is that this seems like a band-aid fix to me. I mentioned this in another thread, but I feel like the bot posts deny the human chance to post and engage with the same content. When a human is the one to create the post they often have both knowledge and passion for the subject and will continue to engage in the comments. Bots do not.
I think ultimately this is something that should be handled by community mods. Ask for feedback from their communities, and if it’s what the people want disallow the bot posts.
Same, I had a knee-jerk angry reaction until I saw that it was free.
On my way. A phrase actually used often in WoW—at least when I still played 10 years ago.
I’m told if any of you notice intrusive thoughts involving Intendant Kira Nerys you should report to sick bay immediately where they should be able to help you intensify them.
omw
It’s healthier than Babylon 5, which is a much smaller property, under the thumb of more incompetent leadership at Warner/AT&T/HBO/Max
Man, you weren’t kidding. That’s some special leadership to let one dude keep it down all this time.
I feel like even if paramount/paramount+ falter there will still be a demand. It’s endured for so long and is such a massive IP that it’s not going to go anywhere. It would probably just end up being on another stream service like Netflix or Prime where paramount isn’t footing the whole bill.
Star Trek man sits funny.
