Just from experience as an admin reviewing applications, bots are nowhere near replicants. 98% of bots can’t make an application without using obvious phrases like “I’d like to engage in meaningful discussions”.

Registration applications (which are pretty much required on all lemmy servers now) have stopped about 95% of them. Some still get through of course, but the admins of every server are doing hard work to prevent it.

The other 5% are quickly discovered and reported, and they can be banned (and their content removed), at the click of a button.

The LLMs are getting creative with how they answer, and people also are applying with half of the responses LLM based, and half real. But its still not hard to spot them when they give all the same predictable answers.

Its interesting because applications are how the old forum-internet used to keep out bots and trolls, and its still the best method to this day. There’s still work to be done, and it’s a never-ending battle, but I think overall we’re winning and doing better than western surveillance platforms like reddit, youtube, or facebook.

Minimo launcher is great.

ScreenZen, with specific times ranges allowed to use given apps.

This to me is the most exciting thing. And not just solar, but also modular nuclear power, fusion power, battery tech. The PRC is at the forefront of this green revolution.

The bot account setting helps ppl filter out bot content, so I’d just make a separate account for your comments / non-script activity.

Dang, never heard this one before but its believable. MJ did put his all into baseball tho, his managers and teammates were convinced he would have made the majors after a year.

Its hard to say, but its probably an issue with nginx proxy mananger, doing some wrong routing on images. I couldn’t even access the images above.

This thread from a few months ago on hexbear has a ton of good ones.

Check your languages, and make sure you have Undetermined selected. Otherwise you’ll filter out most posts.

Thx, although I still do wish we could scale up and get a few more full-time devs. Even if there were 10 of us, there’d still be years of work ahead.

What’s your use case for doing this.

I’ve read this one as well. It’s not bad, but the three comrades, along with all quiet, are both masterpieces.

Noice. I hope to get this sometime.

There’s a few good chapters on “self-indigenization” in Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz - Not a nation of immigrants.

That’s helpful, thx.

Plz open up issues for these in lemmy-ui, its hard for me to keep track of comments to this post, and that is a legitimate bug.

Distinguish as moderator terminology comes from reddit, so its probably best to leave as is.

Thx for opening. Also be sure to open a bug on lemmy-ui if one doesn’t exist. Going to be tough to solve because neither of us have iOS devices.

I also don’t have an iOS device to test on, so its going to be tough to figure out.
