I am also @nLuLukna@lemmy.one although I primarily use this account now. More than that, hi I’m nLuLukna (en-loo-luke-nah). I’m a electronic music fan, massive fan of the TV show suits. I play some videogames sometimes…

  • There’s nothing wrong with those kind of bots But when you take an instance for example granitestate.social, I think that’s what it’s called, which when I was looking into it had 100,000 inactive accounts sat there doing nothing.

    These bots that have been created over the course of maybe a week could be used to spam or brigade instances. Emphasis on COULD, maybe they just sit there. Who knows?

    But many instances took to purging idle bot accounts that had been created on their instances and defedrating from instances that had excessive numbers of bots

    These idle accounts are hard to detect, so only when they appear in large quantities are they removable.

    Just to clear up really I guess, I’m not talking about a Reddit repost bot or twitter scraper, more large amounts of bot spam.


  • I want to remind everyone that Lemmy has had a bot crisis, a while ago I did some research into botted instances and I estimated something like 40% of user accounts are bots. Although this was a while ago so I’m not sure if that is remotely accurate anymore

    Many instances will have taken steps to start purging user accounts, at the scale of Lemmy, that downturn could be entirely explained by these bots being removed

    Obviously some users will leave but i do feel it’s worth noting this fact






  • If they had recognised what they had done to piss people off, this post would’ve done quite alot. If they had said that they fucked up when making the API changes and wanted mods to come help rebuild the API, that alone would’ve done an impressive amount to lower peoples nerves. They wouldn’t have even needed to have acted on the advise. Instead they take zero blame, which imo only pisses more people off.






  • Glad to see an EDM fan on here

    But I’m going to do a shitty job recommending music, since you listed the artists who do like dnb electro… Which is an area that I’m almost totally clueless. But to take a shot in the dark, UNMD. It’s frenchcore techno so it’s a bit different. Maybe look at psy techno since it has the same kind of beat whilst keeping some the melodic parts of electro.

    Sorry that was awful. But alot of the artists I listen to have really fat melodies which is like the exact opposite of what your looking for. Although I do like some of the artists you listed, so I’m gonna mix those into my playlists. So thanks I guess

    Edit: I looked through your post history, defo look into psy techno.
