I have the feeling that people are botting, especially the bronies. Anyone else has the same feeling, or are there just so many of them that they always immediately react if you paint over their stuff?

    I tried ranking my flower vine over their border with the Lemmy logo, and initially they resisted, but then I showed them what I wanted to do with the cursor and they let me. Didn't feel like botting.

    I also had a good experience with the bronies being polite to my art once I messages them. I don't think they were botting, I just think they are numerous and well coordinated because they already have established groups.

    I didn't. I'm not convinced by antibot PoW though. It makes phones a bit laggy and I don't believe it benefits much given that there are machines orders of magnitudes better for this task. I could be wrong though. Most effective way to prevent bots is monitoring activity well and catching patterns manually imo
