I've messaged you on Matrix :)

You should also consider what instance the user is from and whether that instance has a proper sign up application or not.

For instance I feel fairly confident that almost all users on Feddit.dk are real people because we vet every single applicant.

There are a lot of AI slop applications though so if other instances aren't as vigilant, I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of bots.

Also your avatar and the image posted here (not the thumbnail) seem broken - I wonder if that's due to Anubis?

Most search engine bots publish a list of verified IP addresses where they crawl from, so you could check the IP of a search bot against that to know.

Actually I think most search engine bots publish a list of verified IP addresses where they crawl from, so you could check the IP of a search bot against that to know.

I’ve, once again, noticed Amazon and Anthropic absolutely hammering my Lemmy instance to the point of the lemmy-ui container crashing.

I'm just curious, how did you notice this in the first place? What are you monitoring to know and how do you present that information?

It does - but I'm honestly also still refining that vision as I work on it and I want to have a coherent story and something to show before I show anything to the world. Just what I'm most comfortable with :)

I'd rather ensure that I have something a bit more concrete to show before I "announce" it. First impressions matter a lot. And also, there's just not a whole lot to show right now and it is not in any kind of usable state so unless someone is truly interested in working with me on this project (with a somewhat similar idea of a vision of where it's gonna go and all that...), there's really no use in sharing it.

Great!

I feel the state of the project is still too early to be public (especially the frontend, there's really almost nothing there yet), but I can invite you to the repo if you have a user on Codeberg? I'd love to talk if you have a Matrix user.

Why the surprise? 😅

I'm working on a new fediverse software but I'm mostly a backend dev. But I have been learning Svelte/Kit to try and write a frontend. Just putting it out there in case you feel inspired to work on something entirely new :)

Not hard to get as in expensive, hard to get as in the amount of training and certifications you need in order to legally own a gun.

People have a psychological bias to humanize anything that communicates with them and companies are trying to latch onto that mechanism because they benefit when people get an emotional attachment to websites. So I think Google and many others are trying to make people think of websites as things with agencies, rather than machines controlled by people. And yea I think they are partly successful.

Not dissimilar to how LLM AI is marketed nowadays.

My mom asked me the other day whether a virus warning was a scam or not. It was a webpage in her browser. She did not understand that it was not her computer system warning her, but just the website itself. People can't even tell the difference between their operating system and their apps.

I think you vastly overestimate the technical proficiency of the average user. The average user does not understand technology and computers at all. The average user can barely send an email.

It was definitely a reluctant downvote from my side as well. But I feel this community is honestly abused and not living up to its name with the amount of "VeryInteresting" content.

I unfortunately have to downvote this as this is far too interesting to be mildly interesting.

Honestly it has a lot of anti-late-stage-capitalism ideas but the core of the show isn't even really about that. It's a very good show, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Predicted what?

(Piefed will probably replace Lemmy as the go-to eventually)

I think rather we'll see more software popping up and diversifying the ecosystem. Then you can pick whichever you prefer. Which is the whole point of the fediverse. I'm currently working on my own implementation. Might take a long while before any alpha version as I'm super busy but I try to do at least a bit of work on it every day.
