What do you mean hyperinflation, Argentina is clearly the epitome of a stable free market economy.

There's nothing wrong with those kind of bots But when you take an instance for example granitestate.social, I think that's what it's called, which when I was looking into it had 100,000 inactive accounts sat there doing nothing.

These bots that have been created over the course of maybe a week could be used to spam or brigade instances. Emphasis on COULD, maybe they just sit there. Who knows?

But many instances took to purging idle bot accounts that had been created on their instances and defedrating from instances that had excessive numbers of bots

These idle accounts are hard to detect, so only when they appear in large quantities are they removable.

Just to clear up really I guess, I'm not talking about a Reddit repost bot or twitter scraper, more large amounts of bot spam.

I want to remind everyone that Lemmy has had a bot crisis, a while ago I did some research into botted instances and I estimated something like 40% of user accounts are bots. Although this was a while ago so I'm not sure if that is remotely accurate anymore

Many instances will have taken steps to start purging user accounts, at the scale of Lemmy, that downturn could be entirely explained by these bots being removed

Obviously some users will leave but i do feel it's worth noting this fact

Actually that last point isn't quite right, in the 1960s Robinson proved that the set of hyperreals were logically consistent if and only if the reals were.

This put to rest the age-long speculation that the hyperreals were questionable.

This speculation is a pain in the ass since it means that we primarily use limits when talking about this sort of thing.

Which is fine, but infinitesimals are the coolest shit ever

I think it's that new competitor, or is that threads?

You cannot prove that it isn't however. And until you can prove that it isn't, by virtue of not being proven, it has not been proven. And as such it has not been proven and is therefore unproven. So yes it is.

It is so much better now then it was a month ago so imo we are now a floating boat rather than a sinking one that we are using buckets to keep floating
