Good thing it doesn't work here.
But it's a known way to make money on the other site.
because there's only a few thousand users here.
that's why it isn't commonplace; there's no money in it. slop companies make more money on tiktok, facebook and other popular platforms...
...but Lemmy is not free from abuse of this type. If the fediverse was more popular it would start to see more slop content.
that's my point. it does work here, because the same vulnerabilities exist, but isn't common because it's not as profitable as shitting in tiktok or facebook. :)
No, the same vulnerability does not exist here.
There are different vulnerabilities here, but this one isn't there.
Your position is that Lemmy is immune to the following: company creates an account on Lemmy, spams communities with low effort content (possibly created by AI or automated processes), attracts viewers, then sells the account to another company as part of an advertising campaign. This position can be defeated if the above happens even one time. I'm refusing to debate you on this not because you're infallibly correct, but because it's not worth the investment of time. Any idiot can see it's an indefensible position. Have a day. 🫱
