  • All the Lemmy (and Kbin) servers (instances) can theoretically talk to each other. You can follow communities on other instances and comment and post like you are used to.

    You could think of each server as an independent city-state, each with it’s own leaders, customs and citizens.

    If two instances have a feud that can’t be resolved, they will “defederate” and then their users will no longer be able to contact each other.

    There are Nazi instances here in the Fediverse (for example), but they get blocked on sight so you almost never see their garbage in the feeds.

    Does that help?







  • Not an advertiser but they generally know % of views (“impressions”) to clicks (called click through rate) and percentage of clicks that turn into sales (called conversion rate).

    For that reason, I don’t think they’re trying to get rid of human users completely, just the “troublemakers”.

    I think they want to lead the “silent majority” users into a bot advertorial content hellscape where they control all the levers of power and everything is for sale.
