I use a few social media platforms at the same time. I'm used to seeing the same things on each platform. That's how the internet has been for years - you read the same things on the same five sites.

To be fully transparent, Lemmy isn't at the top. I don't post much and I lurk. Sometimes I post a comment here and there.

But this past week, I'm seeing more and more interesting content in the "Everything" section of Lemmy that I didn't see in my other social media feeds. New communities and more interesting convos.

Uncertain if the fediverse has gotten a wave of new posters, some algorithm has changed, or every other social media company is sucking more and more thanks to America Team Police...

Just wanted to share my extremely limited anecdotal non-fact checked viewpoint.

yeah thinking of some of the ppl ive met on the internet, id rather be talking to a bot lol... jkjk

but i think finding out after the fact that i was interacting with a bot somehow seems soulless... like, something i like about the internet is the (small) feeling of still being connected to the world. and that'd be lost if i knew i was interacting with a bot. i imagine there's people who feel differently, but i think that's nuts. if im interacting with a bot, i want to know it.

also like, in responding to you, i hope to further some intelligent discussion and positively affect the world. if you're a bot, then that's hopeless. or maybe im just affecting the ai model positively, idk.
