Doesn't solve astroturfing via bots, but at least there isn't centralized manipulation.

    lemmy's got it figured out and i think it's by accident; just stay away from the large instances.

    it's going to be interesting to see how quickly mastadon gets swallowed up by the profit motive.

    It does help with it though

    For profit platforms have more of an incentive to keep the bots going, for engagement reasons. Non profit managed ones should want to get rid of such bots?
