No wonder Reddit has turned to shit

It’ll happen in the Fediverse too.
And when that happens, we move instances.

That’s discord model. 🫩

Fediverse needs to have a layer which traps AI in a never-ending maze.

A never-ending maze would mean the scrapers just hammer our servers forever. Better to lead them into a honeypot and automatically ban their IP. Like PieFed does.
What about a maze that adds a few hundred ms to the response time with each request, so the load gets less the longer it’s trapped?
I haven’t tried to make something like that. I think it’d be hard to do that without also exhausting our resources too.
Ah, that makes sense
