I love the "show source" button which gives access to how the tests are made.
Damn! Now I'm wondering if I married a fellow human or a bot.
Ask how much is 1 divided by 3; then ask to multiply this result by 6.
If the results looks like 1.99999999998 , it's 99.999999998% a bot.
Nothing prevents someone from following you on your instance. Knowing the sum of your interests gives me more information than the sum.
So, to avoid having your profile being made and exploited, you could split account by interests.
As an example: Someone interested in videogaming and driving Ferraris has a lemmy account he uses to posts on both subjects. Some mar*keting bot wil report "This guy certainly has a high budget for his videogames. Let's sell him expensive racing games with exclusive Ferrari logos & goodies". If that person had one account for video games and another one for ferraris, he'd be protected from that.
But yes, everybody should feel free to use a single wide use account.
If I were given the opportunity, I wouldnt swtich back to the state of " the good old internet" .
It was full of popups and viruses. DL speed was 3kbps on good days. Hence without any form of streaming. Depending on operator, you had to pay for the landine communication between your PC and the provider. If a family member picked up the phone from another room while you were using the modem, you got dcded. Of course, one coulnt be joined by phone when he was using internet.
You have to weigh the pros and cons.
Here, people still feel as guests whereas on reddit, people stayed long enough to feel the place is their's.
("old timers shouln't have to deal with this shit again")
... And recruit chatGPT powered bot armies.
