That’s good

Nice one.

Solipsism […] the external world and other minds cannot be known and might not exist outside the mind.

I feel your relief

Because we control lemmy. Any server admin can request PII from the users in order to use site. We can’t control anything on reddit. Even if reddit was asking for PII like facebook, we, the people, couldn’t know if all of them are actually real. It’s shift of trust from reddit to many local server admins

The other way round. We can observe it on lemmy

Really or just joking? 😃

Because on lemmy we can observe it, on reddit we can’t. There’s a huge ¥ incentive for reddit to operate bots but not for lemmy in its current state.

It sounds all good but it’s crap 😂 Thx for sharing it

That’s a very good question.

Does it even matter?

Remember matrix? Do you want to live in a happy fictional world or in a horrible real world?

Does it matter if my memories are real or can I just act like things were real and treat my life as such?

Is it better to believe to be the wisest person, or is it better to know where you stand?

Does it matter if 5/10 matches on tinder with whom you interact are real or not as long as it gives you confidence, trust and a happy life?

in the pre llm era, I’d agree that it takes effort but reddit sold the comments and posts, and lemmy’s stuff is all public and freely available. anyone can train bots.

I didn’t think of bots with great reputation. Just simple bots for engagement. Bots that answer your question how to treat pimpels. bots sharing their made up experience with being vegan. bots commenting on funny memes. Not for pushing an agenda but for pushing real human engagement. keeping you on reddit. making you believe there are real people liking your meme, even if it sometimes just a smiley. If it is not feasible today, it will be tomorrow or in 10 years. Facebook will be able to create fake human images and fake timelines effortless.

that’s the spiritual predecessor of lemmy

I think, therefore I am.

I am the product of my thoughts.

I am dying every moment because death is not being and I am only now.
