We need to go back to BBS. Ideally those that are invite only with no means of having "blind" signups.
Social media is and has been dead for real engagement for nearly a decade.
- seanthemon 2y agoSo one bot is invited by accident or on purpose that invites more and more bots and that channel is dead, it will be like running from zombies, one person is infected and boom the whole commune is smoked
- rglover 2y agoPossible, but far less likely. This would require real humans being involved to verify each new account (after getting invited, you're dropped into a queue to be approved by admins). Honestly, I think the "but anything can be circumvented" attitude is part of how we got here. People have just given up. These problems can be solved/mitigated, but the nihilistic POV has to be killed in order to solve them.
- seanthemon 2y agoI'm afraid bots HAVE gotten to the point where they could fool someone, you only need to fool one moderator and bots would have no problem just shotgunning into chats until one gets past the wall
- immibis 2y agoYou can ban entire invite trees.
