Brociopathic Mendencies (@jackdaw_ruiz@normal.style) says "i am no longer saying the fediverse is like email. from now on the fediverse is a lot that turkish neighborhood of uncompleted mini-castles. it was supposed to be one beautiful-but-unrealistic thing, and instead it's a different broken-and-hilarious thing, and if anyone lives there you have to assume they were driven into the hills for being unable to exist in polite society.". The post is illustrated by a photo of that neighbourhood

Gross. Glad most of Fediverse is still small enough that it's feasible to mod manually with small teams. I'll keep watching piefed development though. .zip sounds interesting if they stay hands off with that kind of stuff

    To be fair, if a community is active enough, it makes sense to have an autobot in place, mods can't spend 24/7 monitoring the community.

    There are spammers who regularly register and post links to whatever they are advertising.

    Probably true. I like to think that's the good use case for downvotes but I know Fediverse is trying to get away from that a little.

    I also forget that most instances don't have manually approved registration Come to think of it I don't suppose sopuli did. It would help, spammers are everywhere but they tend to avoid having to exert effort over many repetitions of a grift attempt
