    Thanks for the info. Can advertisers tell if it’s bots or not? I would think the new users are just them making stuff up.

      I still visit on my permabanned 15yo account. The number of repost bots is getting crazy. There’s bots mirroring videos now to trick repost detectors (seen 3 this evening). It’s getting so bad I rarely bother with reading comments now.

      Also it gets brigaded and ‘psyoped’ by outside actors so much. News and worldnews are IDF operations now with anyone saying anything uncontroversial like “babies shouldn’t be killed” getting banned for anti-Semitism.
