    Wait, there really are 5.7 million comments a day on Lemmy?

      Maybe, but how many of them are by bots?

        Yeah there are a lot of communities out there where there is just a bot that appears to be mirroring what is posted on the subreddit it mirrors. There are a ton of posts like that I have seen.

        You know, if we had mass tagging built in to the platform, it would solve a lot of bot problems. Probably create whole new ones, too.

          Probably create whole new ones, too.

          We’ve seen a isolated instances of a version of some of these problems already.

          Human artists having their artwork deemed “computer generated”. I, myself have been accused of being a bot. I’m assuming my accusers have arrived conclusion at that because of my choices in use of speech. Would I, on Lemmy, have to fend off a 21st century version of the Scarlet Letter, a “bot” label?
