It's so funny seeing a large group (almost all) of the people in my feed being so excited about this new social media thing that they managed to get in through invitation on Instagram.

A bunch of naives, honestly.

It takes minimal amounts of effort to set up a few bots to sow discord in a new social media network. With the things that we know Meta has done it the past do you honestly believe that dropping a few bots onto Lemmy is beyond them? Why would they let something like Lemmy even get off the ground to become a threat to them, snuffing it out in the cradle would be easier.

It seems like they're trying to feed Lemmy a mortal potion like Pain and Panic tried to Hercules in the Disney movie...
