Come on these conversations HAVE to be bots right?

How do all of these people seem to know details about the fediverse without seeming to grasp basic parts of it and how it may contrast with reddit?

I mean sure there are tons of bots here, there are tons of people with suspect intentions… but like MORE SO here than corporate social media? MORE SO??? HOW? WHY? Why would people with actually serious amounts of resources waste their time here?

    About a month ago, I temporarily rejoined the Fediverse after about a month away previously. As I had lost my login details, I had to set up a new account. I was shocked to find that Lemmy no longer just let me sign up but now I had to fill out a form and wait for it to be verified by a human moderator before I could use the platform.

    This is insane because most (if not all) of the instances I’ve signed up for in the past few years have required a little application process.

    This is not new by any means.
