Full title: I hid a link on my website that only bots can see and told them not to follow it. They broke the rules and in 4 days they went 124,414 levels deep into an endless maze. One bot opened 782,580 doors. I thought this was super interesting, this is how the internet is these days. Thought I’d share.

Nah those people complaining are reddit agents. Trying to ruin lemmy
lol not even a little. I’m trying to grow my lemmy communities. I have no problem with it being a bot, that’s why I haven’t blocked it. My issue is that it’s not declared as a bot. Several times I’ve found myself asking further questions to just realize, it’s that same guy who posted a “my super cool thing” five minutes ago and I won’t get a response to my question. There’s no way he has a jurrasic park themed turtle sanctuary in addition to the other 50 sweet things in his house/yard/town/
There’s plenty of documented evidence of alt bots from moderators. Also, the lack of source link is a key factor in why people are interpreting your post that way.
People might believe you if you provided the source or responded to anything other than to argue and dip
Look at what they do there’s absolutely nobody posting on lemmy and they’re trying to ban the only active contributor.
who this is benefit clearly reddit.
They are not just complainers, they are provocateurs attempting to decontent free and open platforms
Literally people are only complaining because you post everything as “I did this I did that” no one would give a fuck if you just said you reposted it. But people want to have a discussion and think you actually did this stuff and get disappointed that no one ever answers them.
You’re taking the entire discussion portion out of it.
yeah im genuinely trying not to post those. need to improve that setup. not super happy this post got posted I should probably remove it
We can ruin our own instances thank you very much.
