I don’t even really think about it, I just comment if I have something to say. At worst, nobody reads it and I was shouting into the void for a minute.
But the Lemmy userbase isn’t massive yet, so those week+ old posts still see more engagement than you’d think.
You can buy some at the grocery store, it says “Moon Cheese” right on the damn bag! They wouldn’t just lie about what they’re selling
If you want impressive, you have 4-6 seperate terminal windows that take up the whole screen collectively. The laymen assume you’re hacking the NSA or something if they see that.
While true, we already have tools to work around it here. Accounts can be flagged as bots, and you can auto-hide posts from bot accounts.
I’m assuming an auto-mod would bypass that by design, but it’ll work against the flood of student projects that Reddit threads were full of.
They don’t care, at worst they just assume you’re buying them for a kid. It takes a lot more than that for a cashier to even notice.
So go get some smiles, those things are delicious.
Play store already had that behavior from at least the previous version, and just got the changed inbox behavior this morning. They’re keeping parity between them pretty well.
So far, we have a captcha on account creation now and it seems to be working (from what I’ve seen, anyway)
It’ll be a tough balancing act though. Relatively frictionless sign-up has been great for us, and anything that deals with bots will also affect that. Whatever else we may end up doing will need to be carefully considered.
