      That’s true to a certain extent, but I think the fediverse isn’t all that attractive to these types of people. Additionally I think we are way better prepared to handle mass bot bans and detection since we aren’t as whorish here in the fediverse

        The ratio of human admins to users is better too, I think that will work in our favour.

      So far there’s no money to be made here. Influence and reach is also limited.

      If that changes at some point, it might be the end of the Fediverse. It’s far too open to bots. A spammer can not only easily create new accounts on instances, they can run their own instances.

        Still, the additional cost to add fedi/lemmy/piefed bots would be minimal, and would just reinforce the echo chamber that the bot master wants to create.
