Reddit, AI spam bots explore new ways to show ads in your feed

#For sale: Ads that look like legit Reddit user posts

"We highly recommend only mentioning the brand name of your product since mentioning links in posts makes the post more likely to be reported as spam and hidden. We find that humans don't usually type out full URLs in natural conversation and plus, most Internet users are happy to do a quick Google Search," ReplyGuy's website reads.

I've been on Lemmy ever since the reddit API fracas. To date, I have not seen a reason to return. I have, however, seen many reasons to stay away.

The larger engagement is a potential reason..lots of smaller niche lemmy communities users won't engage or comment..I just lurk on Reddit with an API modded sync client. If they ban my throw away or block the API I'm done

There are just certain communities that haven't picked up over on Lemmy. D&D, Pathfinder, LFG, and I'm sure many others. I hate reddit with a passion but there is still stuff there.

Not for long. It's about to be non-stop Bots and models just talking back and forth to each other.

Fuck id kill for Grimdank on here.

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There's already one. Just be active in it and cross posted some stuff from reddit if needed

Whats it called cause I cant find it when I search grimdank or even something as simple as 40k?

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm surprised you didn't find it. It's the first and only hit on lemmy search https://lemmyverse.link/c/grimdank@lemmy.world

[–] CommunityLinkFixer@lemmings.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !grimdank@lemmy.world

Time to open a D&D instance!!

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

running your own instance is not a trivial matter. There's plenty of well run and underutilized instances that could be used instead.
