    The tragic thing, though, is that if lemmy ever “takes off”, there’s nothing about it that will make it any more resistant to bots and trolls.

    It’s kinda like back when Macs had no viruses, because nobody bothered.

      Not only that, but it’s actually a much easier target because of the relatively sporadic moderation.

      Compared to reddit, the Fediverse’s ability to moderate propaganda and advertising is puny and uncoordinated.
