They are definitely not appearing as bots in Connect.

If the accounts from alien.top you are seeing are not marked as bots, then it means that you interacted with an actual person who has taken over their account. ;)

i dont agree this is the solution.

Then how about help and come up with something better?

will not waste time interacting with bots.

Then don't interact with the bots. You can, e.g, write the comment on Lemmy and send a DM to the original redditor, inviting them to join the instance/community. I did that to dozens of people already.

How does 2 way mirroring work?

That will depend on a few things:

• If it's an user that has "converted" via alien.top's portal, we can work as a real reddit client and send message on behalf of the user.
• If the lemmy user is not on alien.top but wants to enable a two-way bridge, then we will have to do an authentication dance and send messages with passcodes to both reddit and lemmy.
• If the user does not want a bridge, we can still send a message to the reddit thread via another bot.

The last one would be the easiest to implement, but I'm avoiding releasing this because it might be taken down due to spam.

1. The right to be forgotten applies to PII. Comments can contain PII but usually don't.
2. The right to be forgotten applies to your private relationship with a company. Comments in public forums are, well, public. You can't force the public to forget what you said.

I think that right to be forgotten is untenable in anything you publicly put into the internet. I know a bit off topic...

Once someone has open access to it (like reddit/lemmy). You are implicitly implying that you want anonymous access of that information to the wider world.

Do you think it is even possible? (BTW, im not being a dick, just interested)

Also not a lawyer, but right to be forgotten applies to search engines to remove articles from the search index. Originally applied to news articles some guy in Spain didn't want showing up when you google'd his name. The law doesn't require the publisher to remove the content from their website, but instead requires search engines to remove the links in results.

So if someone's comment was mirrored to Lemmy AND that comment was indexed by a search engine linking back to a Lemmy instance, then you still have the right to request Google or Bing or whatever to remove those links from search results via the same process.
