i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

I think maybe as well it always became really heated with the Reddit bots when you would express a differing opinion to theirs. There were many times bots would pick a fight and then argue with you like it was their job (because it was). This feels more chill like the early days of Reddit and I hope it stays that way.
you people genuinely think that the bots are the ones having these arguments?
I’m using bot broadly to mean astroturfed actors and influencers. Absolutely there are troll farms on Reddit being paid to push specific agendas.
you’re an idiot lol.
I guess as soon as Lemmy gets properly search indexes and if search engines starts putting weight behind results from Lemmy then commercial interest will arrive?
If a lobby organization thinks they will gain something by buying opinions on Lemmy, then they’ll try to do it?
I’m not sure how you can avoid it, but I hope Lemmy will be better than Reddit. Worst case it’s even easier to manipulate Lemmy since it’s mostly a lot of small instances run for free by people in their spare time.
