That’s not true. There’s one bot that routinely posts to news communities called “MicroWave” and there are consistently people engaging with its posts.

Most people don’t even recognize it’s a bot.

For a most niches on lemmy, there aren’t alternative communities that are more active.

People should have a voice even if they use it to say things you don’t like.

Edit: These downvotes make me glad none of you are in a position of power outside of your internet circles.

As I’ve said before, these communities already have nobody engaging in them. Hiding posts from bots will also hide posts from this bot.

This is disgusting.

I can also see how such ‘tests’ can be used as a political tool to take away children from people who hold beliefs that the current barons don’t like.

Thanks. This is interesting, but it looks like all of the communities are locked and only the bot gets to post.

I’m also referring to something that just copies the posts, but doesn’t include the comments for either side.

It probably doesn’t make much sense to mirror /r/technology to /c/technology since that community is already popular and self-sustaining on lemmy.

There are countless other ‘niche’ communities that have no posts for months, however. There already isn’t anyone engaging in these communities and it’s unlikely that that will change because nobody wants to manually make posts that next to nobody is going to see. It’s cyclical.

Nothing really wrong with florida.

I say this, because I’ve come across genuine morons who live in Texas and have the nerve to scoff at florida while ignoring their shithole state and the one directly to the east of it.

People with garages big enough for a nice car

What the fuck? I can tell you don’t have a garage, because for 99% of them size isn’t going to impact the ‘niceness’ of the car you can have in it.

Challenge: People who lived in major cities understanding that there’s more to life than what goes on in them.

Level: Impossible.

Or maybe talk to manufacturers who won’t sell a basic EV that isn’t overpriced?

This is huge. Keep in mind, every additional bullshit “feature” in your car will end up costing you more than it costs the business.

This is why we’ve been conditioned to accept so much superfluous bullshit as possible.

You can get electric for only a slightly higher cost than gas

Bullshit.

Have you seen America? It’s huge.

There’s also way more to America than the metropolitan cities you’ve been conditioned to prioritize.

Don’t get me wrong, most of them spend money like morons while complaining they need more.

However, electric vehicles are still just too expensive of an investment to justify to the average American.

This could probably be fixed if the leeches maximizing profit off of them made less profit, but why would they do that unless they’re forced to?

No, it’s the price.

and somehow get it to stay powered for so many hours.

You can plug it into an outlet to power it.

All platforms are just becoming censorship hellholes for the owners.

Ok…?

How about a sanction?

I hope he wins, or at least costs the companies as much money as possible.

This censorship needs to end.

This isn’t news.
