No we have controls in place to prevent, or at least greatly diminish, the proliferation of bots. There are bots everywhere even here on lemmy. It’s a fact with the internet. You all seem to think that no censorship means no moderation, which is completely untrue. we do and will have moderation, and as the usage gets bigger there where be more moderators placed. The only bots we plan to allow are the search engine spiders and AI bots (without posting abilities). When a bot does get through it will be removed through moderation.

No moderation means the place will eventually be full of bots and bigots, if it already isn’t made exclusively for these things already.
No thank you.

No, we all just read the part that clearly says “no moderation of content.”

There is a difference between modifying the content in a post and removing it al together.
We want people to see the true you, not some canned response/opinion that has been given to you by the source, but rather your own unbiased opinion on the matter. Which means you better do research and educate yourself on the topic before posting. Like I said in other replies, you need to provide reliable sources of information, generally at least 2 of them, but more is better. The intent is to prevent an echo chamber effect. We also have a living constitution we are working on that allows changes as needed to help mitigate these problems, and all the votes are voted on by registered users, not the administration of the institution.

The moderation we are talking about revolves around not changing the person post.
If it’s not acceptable, such as bots posting, which we are in the process of setting up on the website, CSAM, doxxing etc are to be instantly removed and banned by IP address as well as email address.
We have taken those issues into consideration and are constantly working towards that end.
As for the bigot part, everyone is a bigot about something whether they know it or not.
