Over the past week or so there has been a serious spam problem hitting mastodon and rest of the fediverse especially misskey over on the japanese side of things and the story behind it is absolutely wild.

    No, YouTube has a serious idiot commenter problem.

        Sure, but when the first claim comes from a sensationalist youtuber, its claim to veracity sort of loses weight.

      Lol, if you think that absolutely open sign ups on instances isn’t a problem, then thanks for advertising the bankruptcy of your opinions

        Nice strawman argument, was that what I said? Nope.

        Also, “advertising the bankruptcy of your opinions”? Go easy on the thesaurus, kid.

          Always the hallmark of a real contender. Oh, did I say “hallmark”? Hope that doesn’t cause you to stumble. “Stumble” means to trip while walking; in this case it’s a metaphor for thinking.

          Hope that was clear enough for you.

          Nice strawman argument

          Huh. Considering the primary point of the video was how open signups are bad, I don’t know why you contradicted your comment on the other thread and said this video has no valid point.

          So nice self-contradiction I guess?
