Mhm, I love dismissive "Look, it already works, and there's nothing to improve" comments.
Lemmy lacks significant capabilities to effectively handle the bots from 10+ years ago. Nevermind bots today.
The controls which are implemented are implemented based off of "classic" bot concerns from nearly a decade ago. And even then, they're shallow, and only "kind of" effective. They wouldn't be considered effective for a social media platform in 2014, they definitely are not anywhere near capability today.
