While browsing the fediverse I come across more and more accounts that seem … a bit off, a little uncanny. The stuff they post seems random, their comments slightly weird. What’s going on, is the fediverse being overrun by bots? Or am I as a fanatic anti-AI person just losing my mind and seeing the enemy everywhere?

I hate the fact that I now question every interaction that seems a bit off - it seems such a stupid waste of my time and I’m afraid I might just end up blocking real people who happen to express themselves in a strange way - as a neurodivergent person I know how bad I would feel about being ostracized as ‘too strange to be real’. How would you handle this?

    And like with “Who’s line is it Anyway” everything is made up and the points don’t matter.

    They are magical internet points and getting thin skinned over downvotes is pathetic 😂

      couldn’t care less for the downvotes tbh, if anything I’ll wear them as a badge of honor.

      my problem is getting 30 downvotes in five minutes in a sub that has maybe five active users at any given hour of the day.
