How do we know that the people on reddit aren’t talking to bots? Now, or in the future? what about lemmy?

Even If I am on a human instance that checks every account on PII, what about those other instances? How do I know as a server admin that I can trust another instance?

I don’t talk about spam bots. Bots that resemble humans. Bots that use statistical information of real human beings on when and how often to post and comment (that is public knowledge on lemmy).

    Well, yeah. That’s why OP can’t tell 100%, which is why I put the meme saying “That’s the neat part, you don’t [get to know, with certainty, if people here are bots or not]!”

      Ahh you meant it as a “See this thing? Yeah, it doesn’t matter, we’re all screwed! WHY ISN’T ANYONE LISTENING 🎧 TO ME? WE ARE SCREWED!”
