that was fast.
that’s what she said
That’s rough, buddy
That’s what he said.
Spam bots pursuing an audience shouldn’t be a surprising thing. Even glorious fediverse valhalla is battling with them.
The difference between the Threads & Twitter situations is that I’m inclined to extend a lot more leeway to an engineering team that’s less than two weeks into a new platform, versus one that’s been around nearly two decades and is suddenly dealing with issues because the owner decided to haphazardly fire the teams responsible for maintaining those areas.
when all you could find before that was corporate accounts, what’s the difference?
High-end human-powered spambots.
spambots that you can micromanage
Good! May they make Threads a miserable place. 😍
May it burn brighter and die faster than YikYak.
I miss the old YikYak, straight from the code YikYak Chop up the soul YikYak, set on its goals YikYak I hate the new YikYak, the bad mood YikYak The always rude YikYak, spaz in the news YikYak I miss the sweet YikYak, chop up the beats YikYak I gotta to say at that time, I’d like to meet YikYak See, I invented YikYak, it wasn’t any YikYaks And now I look and look around and there’s so many YikYaks I used to love YikYak, I used to love YikYak I even had the pink polo, I thought I was YikYak What if YikYak made a song about YikYak Called “I Miss The Old YikYak”? Man, that would be so YikYak That’s all it was YikYak, we still love YikYak And I love you like YikYak loves YikYak.
a more miserable place.
Fixed that. I can’t imagine a platform less appealing than Threads.
What I say to that is reject modernity, revert to phpBB forums.
Just like the eventual rapid fall of L’manberg, albeit not as fast as a series of TNT and wither bombardments…
Who actually manages to look at 10,000 tweets a day like holy shit do these people do nothing but scroll Twitter for 24 hours a day?
Why is it that I immediately assume at least a sizable amount of chatbots on threads were either created, directed, or funded by Elon and his financiers.
Of course there are going to be chat bots swarming any social media/platform with enough real participants, but it’s not like Meta is new to social media and I would assume Meta has sophisticated detection systems available to them for exactly this type of thing (and probably has their own chatbots and a bot whitelist)
Maybe the chatbot AI revolution will make social media unusable.
Either way, I would be shocked if chatbots could exist on either platform in a meaningful way if Meta/Twitter actually put reasonable efforts into ensuring all content was generated and shared by real people.
I’m saying this without a clue how anything actually works, don’t take my crackpot theories too seriously
If you build it, bots will come. 'Twas inevitably a more pressing concern when you suddenly have 30 mil+ signups in less than 2 weeks.
Hopefully our admin communities will handle our bot waves strongly.
I wouldn’t be surprised if one day it comes out that these spam bots are paid for by competitors
Pretty bad. So much for the advantage it had.
Lololololol
yuck at musk’s reply though 💀
