There’s been a couple of minor dust-ups on mastodon about the conduct of so-called “big accounts” there that I do not care to comment on, but it has got me thinking — do we even have “big accounts” on the threadiverse (Lemmy/piefed/mbin)? I don’t think there’s any handle I’ve seen where I’ve been like “oh yeah, that person.” Am I just bad at remembering usernames, or does the community/thread style of discussion remove all continuity for a single account?
They say they just have an RSS feed and they manually crosspost. I haven’t looked into if they have times they’re inactive (both because it’s not worth my time, and it’s particularly annoying now with the 30 different accounts), but their behavior is incredibly bot-like even if they’re not literally a bot. I’ve noticed a few times (read: this isn’t a valid statistical sample omg) that they got the cross post off within a minute of the original post.
