The troll farms are very happy with the fediverse movement. It's much much easier to exploit and deceive compared to big regulated tech companies. The neckbeards behind Lemmy are also typical 'marketplace of ideas' naïve idiots, making it that much easier for groups to spread their misinformation unopposed.

Even so it's a net positive. The world just needs to get better at critical thinking. Hell, I had to take a whole class on it in college. I personally think it should be a high school class.

Has there been any proof from any Fediverse admin who could confirm that troll farms are active on Lemmy/Fediverse? I'd be interested to read more about that. Thanks!

Edit: Would've expected that it's too small in comparision to the big players.
