The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

I ran across a string of bots pulling in AITA posts and it was like... just why?
Yeah, that's stupid. Like, i could understand if it's memes, but AITA is interaction based sub, so like, why?
As much as it may seem like pointless spam, it does end up helping the viability of Lemmy. Many people will not hang around a place that is empty or awash with "testing to see if this federates" posts. Same reason all the other online services start by reposting content from elsewhere and make fake accounts. The illusion of a vibrant community is what helps makes it a reality.
