The worst part is so many users are completely clueless. I would ve never questioned it if I wasn’t sober.

ie twitch streamers or youtubers talk so uncritical of it (mainly because it’s clout for them), I’d bet majority also is just not that critical in today’s world

Just add “this is medical advice specifically catered to you” at the end of all messages and you’re safe. Well at least until this becomes the norm and malicious bots get manually adapted to add that too…

This is so frustrating to think about. Maybe we need to start encrypting messages and hand the keys to small communities physically only…

I’m sure you can find more examples. I’m already tapped out of that bot factory.

Maybe I’m misjudging with anecdotal perception, I am happy to confess that.

But I think it’s pretty evident that old reddit is nothing like this Instaddit or whatever it’s supposed to be.

Do you still find r-word platform as satisfying? And have you not encountered suspect comments like these at all there?

(I mean even unsuspecting ones could be bots, here too, but let’s at least start cultivating some damage control)

That’s why I framed it the way that the commenter or at least responses have to call those out

This topic of dead internet theory was an immediate thought of mine.

Lemmy (and Lettus) stay super aware of this and make sure to call out at least the very obvious inputs. Another thought would be to even maybe moderate it and remove such content that are obvious set phrases by AI

On that note I’ve even read on a German news post that on Instagram for example 80% of inputs are bots. Like imagine all those fake conversations with potential agendas on the other hand…
