Without context, this post is ironic.
@[email protected] I should have clarified. I was seeing the same post in Japanese being posted for multiple pages by multiple “users”. By the time I saw your comment, it looked to be cleaned up.
I’ve got filters running on my end, buy asklemmy has been being getting a lot of spam posted recently. Just lazy copy-paste bs with a fishing link
What is all this spam?
What spam? This?
@[email protected] Looks yummy. Musubi time.
What is all this spam?
It is the unfortunate consequence of having a public platform. Some parties have a stake in seeing it fail, or want to use it selfishly at the expense of everyone else.
These can be competitors, criminals and big companies who rely on everything being under their control.
This is why good moderation is important and having something like adblock or a simple filter is a thing I do recommend. Note tho, just like any platform that doesn’t pay their moderators, some lemmy spaces (and sometimes it’s mods) are quite a mess.
Sometimes it’s because orgs that make millions just decide to be irresponsible and hoard wealth (eg, wikipedia) and sometimes it’s because it’s run by volenteers (like a good chunk of lemmy, mastodon and matrix)
