Or maybe I haven’t just seen this image yet? I’ve only gotten images where she seems to be wearing a grey jacket.
Finally got blessed with an inbox from Nicole today and found this post. Hope this lady at least sent these images to someone and it’s not just someone creeping on their cam.
I finally got it too. It feels like a rite of passage. You’re not a full citizen until you got the DM.
I want to be indoctrinated into the Lemmy Fediverse too. Still waiting for my message.
The (singular) fediverse girl is kind of sad
MRW I get a suspicious message from Nicole, the Fediverse Chick
I’m starting to feel really left out
I joined the club today.
lol same
Wait, so this is spam? And y’all knew about this? She sent me a DM, too. Guys am I compromised?
she sends us all DM’s, thats the joke
from all different instances. its becoming a good meme. I suspect parsing the mod log for her name is a hoot
Got my first Nicole today. Made me kinda happy ngl lmao
I’ve only got a Sara. She doesn’t put nearly as much effort in.
Me too! Yesterday was my first day here, and Nicole was the last thing I got before I went to bed.
I’ve been here since the reddit blackout and Nicole just ignored me until now lmao
Same! I feel like I’m part of the
haremclub now!Hell yeah!
Checked my messages and yep it is there
Got my first today
Worried how unusable this place will be if real spammers find their way here
DMs don’t worry me that much, but botted content, upvotes and comments would kill the platform like any other.
Yea, that’s the thing that scares me
this is why I’m ok staying small and never going mainstream, honestly I had hoped that for reddit pre 2010 but by mid 2010s it was already too far gone
Spam is only going to get worse anyway, just like bots spam on all forum, just by them using a specific forum engine
Perhaps a way to limit how fast new instances are able to post and tools to identify those causing spam
That won’t stop anyone. Just spin up 50 instances and let them sit for a while until they’re not so new anymore.
Then when you need one, grab one off the shelf that’s been riping for a while.
It’s only a bump when they get started.
Auto flag rapid changes then?
I expect the software to improve. The “fediverse chick” spam is the perfect opportunity to test countermeasures.
Damn I didn’t get one with the new outfit yet :(
I really hope Nicole just becomes a huge fediverse meme
She’s already a meme. Maybe in 20 years when the fediverse is popular, this will be a thing only us “old timers” know.
I sound like a grandpa now…
You sound like a wannabe grandpa “When are my grandkids coming dear, I want to see them before I pass”
Yeah, where are they?
I just got this exact DM over night. Never heard of the nicole before. Is she here often?
Every few months, “Nicole” mass spams a bunch of PMs inviting people to click on various suspicious links
I am not missing out for once, glad to see nicole in chat room hell
Is that a crack pipe😭
Looks like a bong to me
Nicole seems to be experimenting.
Stay in school Nicole!(George Brown College specifically)
Wait…you mean we aren’t soulmates? 😭
You may still be soulmates, but you’re certainly not the one dating her.
Lemmy is so far left that we all share a communal girlfriend
I was hit too just now.
