Comment on Follow RSS feeds from Lemmy

  Lemmy thunderdome community! All posts get fed in from RSS, but if they don’t get upvoted by the time the time limit has passed, they get deleted!

  I am joking, I think. It’s an interesting idea though. I don’t think relying on the algorithm to stem the tide of bot-posted content is a completely complete solution, since I have definitely seen bot-provided communities which annoyed me with the volume of 1-upvote posts which the bot was putting up. I am planning to try to limit the feeds available to those that have a respectable amount of human interaction.

    Yeah. That’s not what I said. I said it would help to filter ads from otherwise-interesting sources.

      I understand now. I thought you meant something different by crowdsourcing. No worries.
