I found a very large botnet in Brazil mainly and several other countries. And abuseipdb.com is not marking those IPs are a thread. We need a better solution.
I think a honeypot is a good way. Another way is to use proof of work basically on the client side. Or we need a better place to share all stupid web scraping bot IPs.
If Microsoft really lied.. Then there is zero trust left.. The trust in Microsoft was already at the bottom on my end. I'm not using any Microsoft product for example, but this new quantum chip lie would really be the bottom of the bottom for me.
I do not agree with you. Yes I'm a developer myself of Mbin. And I created Mbin. However, the problem with decentralization is that you still need to trust the developers who are building the decentralized apps. So within a decentralized ecosystem the centralized point are the developers and its project.
If you do not agree with Lemmy, you can go to Mbin. And visa versa; if you do not agree with Mbin devs, you can go to Lemmy, etc. Meaning you do need to have alternatives, otherwise choice is an illusion and decentralization is also an illusion.
That is why it's important to also use other software than Lemmy like Mbin or Piefed. Users want choice and the Fediverse is only as decentralized as the software running on it. So please, think about this.
I like it alot.
