    It’ll be interesting to see how Discord enshittifies.

    It’s the default destination for the niche-interest “cozy web,” and they could go down several paths.

    Seems believable. I’m curious, how do lemmy instances protect themselves from ai slop and bots?

      Apart from not being that interesting for now, the first line of defence for most is manually-approved sign ups, as far as I can tell.

      When the Fediverse grows, I think that weeding out accounts that post slop will be the “easy” part; the hardest part will be to identify the silent bot accounts that do nothing but upvote.
