Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Reddit has had subredditsimulator for years, stuff like that has been around a lot longer than the general public realizes. Could easily create a believable version of asklemmy, like you said. But the people who would want that are probably not the people who even bother responding to posts in the first place.
I hope Lemmy stays obscure enough to avoid the AI onslaught for a while longer, every major website is already completely overrun
Big instances might be doomed, but ones small enough for folks to “know” each other might do better.
…And that may come with stuff like restricting submission rights to server members? So bots don’t, say, have incentive to build up a “legit” account then post spam.
I think LLM systems will make great automods and mod assistants, too, to help them fight it. Obviously there’s a lot of hate for such things now, but I think that sentiment may settle.
