    Didn’t you have to buy an account at Digg? If so, were the bots buying the accounts? And if so, who was buying them?

      No you just had to request the account and then one would be provided to you when they open it up. I finally received my account a couple months ago. It was worse than it is here. I was hoping for some good alternatives to Reddit but overall Lemmy is only halfway there digg was only a third of the way there.

            Typically, and defiantly if Rp/creative writing I myself dont use Ai. I have been using it to help speed up stuff like coding, code blocking, and technical read outs though. the usual mundanely wrote contents, that would likely just zap all my time of which I am unpaid for while working within open sources.

                I find doing AI impressions an effective trolling technique: beep bip boop & some fun punctuation ‒−–—―…:.
