I’ve noticed an uptik of pro Chinese propaganda content here on lemmy in recent days. I am afraid the fediverse had been discovered.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Doing this research transparently is a good idea, it will only be a matter of time before other actors will try and use LLMs to influence lemmy. Like spam, bots and farms, this is a reality the fediverse will have to deal with eventually. Better start preparing now.

Tell me about it. Windows by day, Linux by night. Starting my work pc with windows 11 feels like entering a third world dictatorship where everything is exploitative yet completely shit at the same time. And yet, it prevails.
