Can anyone explain what the point is of creating an instance and filling it with bots? Seems like it just costs money and time but with no benefit? Is it for a future spam campaign?

It's a good thing but also might not be good if hosting costs become unsustainable. I hope we can cope.

Count me in.
Yeehaw!
I've tried Lemmy a bit last night. I know Lemmy threads can be searched and browsed here and I'm not sure it matter, but if it does I hope it's Kbin that wins the mass adoption war. I'm finding the Kbin UI experience more enjoyable. I also appreciate the way it combines a microblog tweet like feature with reddit type usage into the same platform.
From what i've heard it doesn't matter who wins. Kbin can interact with posts on lemmy and lemmy can interact with posts on kbin.

Unfortunately, some of those users are bringing the worst of Reddit with them. Their is an explosion of low value cutesy comments.
Just like the old Digg migration days. Soon you will forget about those Diggers and accept them as your own.

Will there be a point when the number of new users will need to be controlled?
