or something of the sort. It’s the only explanation I’ve got…
One or two days old accounts with a single post related to something that will generate replies for sure (AMA has a lot of them, like “I’m a Romanian girl that has lived most of my life secluded, ama” or something or the sort…) and both the post and account are deleted 24h later.
Latest suspicious one is about the guy who is short with long feet, second time it’s posted by the same account who deleted the original but has no other comment history in-between.
One week ago on the shit post community, Dad ranking Instagram screenshot from “op’s kid school”, called it in the discussion, OP replied it was nothing of the sort, account and post are now deleted…
It could just be karma whores expanding to other platforms than reddit. Idk if it’s still a thing but there was a time on reddit where people would steal posts, repost old top posts and aquire as much karma as they can on new accounts. Then sell the username to shills so they can push their agenda without looking like an obviously belligerent shill. They might try the same approach on lemmy before realizing karma doesn’t mean shit here which is where you see them deleting their accounts.
While possible I do think it’s a stretch, I also think it would be completely inefficient to try and train any LLM by feeding it data from lemmy. I wanna say the average number of active users on lemmy at any point is around 40,000. Compared to what google says reddit’s avg daily active users which is 52,200,000 users per day, it would seem like a complete waste of resources.
Why are you attempting to discredit my hard work?!
For the betterment of us all
Would make sense if the accounts weren’t deleted along the posts every time (the short guy with big feet being the exception) and I don’t think karma is visible anyway
Reddit would charge them to train LLMs
Karma isn’t visible on Lemmy, but my instance (Mbin) shows it as “reputation”. If you’re curious, yours is 39482.
Mbin gang!
OP is fucking plowing fedi hard too!
Good job!
It ain’t about the karma though, it is about seeding something new✊
Corpos can get fucked… Internet got derailed after cell phones went mainstream. It will take a decade to build out infra for the plebs.
