    Auto industry’s shift toward EVs is expected to go on despite Trump threat to kill tax credits

  • What’s interesting is some places like grocery stores installed chargers, but then removed them because of all the EV owners taking up spots but not actually shopping at the stores.

    This happened a while ago but the irony is just so palpable

    This comment was in response to someone expressing regret about joining .ml if I recall correctly

    Edit: I'm convinced all this guy does is camp out in front of his computer and wait for an excuse to abuse what itty bitty power he has.

    Opinions wanted: defederating with reddit repost bot instances

    Update: so, the responses this far are almost universally that these bots have been blocked by users of the community. There is also a general disinterest in defederating, which is on brand.

    You guys wanna do a poll or something or?

    I’d like to lead my thoughts with a quote from the admins regarding bots within lemm.ee:

    “Bots must not be responsible for the majority of content in any community”

    There are two entire instances that immediately spring to mind, zerobytes.monster’s b0t user, and lemmit.online. Their content is quite literally 90% bot content with 0 engagement, and they spam constantly.

    Now here at lemm.ee we generally don’t defend from stuff, that’s actually why I prefer this instance. Yes, you can block the bot users and that solves the problem, but hear me out:

    These bots ruin the experience on Lemmy for new users. They spam so many posts, attempting to block them from a mobile app will usually crash the app. If you’re a new user coming to Lemm.ee sorting by all, you see tons and tons of empty posts.

    Zerobytes is particularly egregious because it doesn’t even repost actual content, just thousands and thousands of links to Reddit posts. It’s a spam instance, period, and I feel strongly about this.

    Lemmit.online isn’t quite as bad, but it’s an entire instance dedicated to spam reposting everything from Reddit. All the posts have zero engagement, and the comment value is gone so everything decent gets buried.

    Yes there are ways around this on an individual user level, but then you’re creating a context where there’s even less engagement in the vast majority of “new” posts.

    Anyway, thems my thoughts. Repost bots are stupid, one that drive traffic to Reddit are even worse. Thoughts?

    Difficulty logging in on mobile browsers?

    For whatever reason when I attempt to login on firefox or chrome from my iPhone 11, I get the infinite spinning circle. Anyone else experienced this?
