/r/programming came back up two days ago and as far as I can tell everything relating to the blackout was wiped. I kinda expected it since spez was admin.
Another thing that surprised me was how much chatGPT bot spam there is (danm it is so so bad, wonder what the mods are doing over there… ah yes, spez).
I used to sort by hot so it was hidden away a bit for me before.
Anyways I hope Lemmy does not fall into the same pitfalls!

The solution is obviously to replace the mods by bots, to fight other bots.
Battle bots, but virtual XD
Then we got bots talking to bots about articles written by bots, moderated by bots. Its gonna be great.
You could call it a botnet
