No shit, Sherlock Wagner Boss

Someone’s getting novichocked

It’s mostly spam users unfortunately, someone posted a script and guide that allowed auto generation of users on any instance that didn’t have captcha enabled. Since then user counts have started shooting up.

Captcha is now enabled on some instances but the issue will be continuing on other instances that haven’t heard the message yet.

Best we use active users as the main metric to measure growth now.

Hasn’t caught on pfft dude why are you even replying when you clearly know nothing about the tech except for it’s bad for the planet we haven’t even got into how it could be powered with renewables (when its applied within a crypto currency that is)

Good day to you sir

Except it’s been around for decades and put to good use but you’ve only heard of it from crypto and are referring to crypto.

Have you heard of hashcash, it’s POW precursor to bitcoin. It stops spam, was originally developed for email but could be incorporated into Lemmy eventually on sign up. Principal is similar to what you suggest.

Check the modlogs too, I’m seeing censorship from mods for petty reasons. Everyone can see what every mod is doing via the modlogs.

I think this is a feature, well the media aspect anyway. Immutable media. The rest can be developed on.

It’s nice-to-have if shit really did hit the fan economically and hyper inflation took over. Glad the hype is over though.

I have no idea what’s going on, what’s the story can I be linked to anything?

Quite similar games though from what I have read about starfield

It may be easier if you hosted your own Lemmy instance and guiding Redditor’s to that, check out oracle always free tier, I believe you can get a 24GB RAM Arm 4 OCPUs, which is definitely enough spec to hit the ground running with a few thousands subscribers. If you end up needing higher spec than that, you could start a donation pot, giving the help the sub provides, I feel safer in saying you’d get enough donations.

You get a wan IP too, you just need to buy an instance domain, exactly the same as buying any other domain and point it to you IP.

It would be the most seamless way to migrate imv, don’t have to deal with both kbins problems and potential problems of Lemmy, where you aren’t in control of the server hosting all your material.

Happy to try and assist, pro bono, if you like this idea and need my help.

This is brilliant! I had just took a look at /r/pics without logging in and can see its just now filled with John Oliver pics
