I’ve been seeing a lot of users from alien.top commenting in various threads (mainly sports) lately. They only caught my attention because they are all flagged as bots and I typically manually block most bots (not all because there are some I like). For every one of them their entire post history consists of 1-2 comments or posts. When I took a look at that instance there is nothing there at all and it also shows no users. The comments look human enough but I guess I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that all the comments are LLM generated. Is alien.top just someones LLM experiment or is something else going on here?
The admin banned the whole communities! I first have to find an instance that would be okay with your software. Do you have any suggestions as to how to find one? Also, in case you didnt see, real lemmy users engaged in discussions based on the reddit comments many times already, making your idea a success!
Yeah, I know. I’m seeing the same at [email protected] and [email protected]. It’s really cool, and it will be even cooler when I make it two-way.
I’m thinking of building a whole network of different instances based around specific interests. I have for selfhosted (which will be for devops in general), soccer, basketball, american football, tennis, crypto/blockchain. Maybe I should set up one for TV/Movie/Music discussion. Any good ideas for a domain name? :)
How about something along metacritic, as this would include not only movies but gaming too? metacritic.top or metacriticz.top …
metacritics.zone ?
Sounds good.
https://metacritics.zone/c/90dayfiance. Please join and make any post so that I can appoint you as mod of the community.

Also, could you make a gakinotsukai one as well?
Lastly, would it be possible for the bot not to copy posts where the OP has removed the content of the thread? There’s a lot of posts like that.
Done.
Can you give me an example of posts that have no content? I will take a look at those later, because now I need to put some work finishing setting up the different instances, communities and I also need to put some time into the fediverser code for letting reddit users take over their mirrored accounts.
https://feddit.de/post/4700011 and https://feddit.de/post/4689465 would be examples.
Good luck finishing to set up the instances.
I also did a gaki post: https://feddit.de/post/4701709
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Interesting
I’m just finishing the setup of about 8 different instances, each focused on different themes. Any subreddit that you’d like to have mirrored?
Could you please list the instances? I’m interested in following this.
No subreddit I would like to follow right now, but I’ll keep you updated
