It's a solution to a problem Lemmy will soon have in that case.

Which is bots.

Lemmy isn't flooded with bots and astroturfing because it's essentially too small to matter. The audience is something like < 0.001% that of reddit.

Once it grows the problem comes here as well, and we have no answers for it.

It's a shitty situation for the internet as a whole, and the only solution is verifying humans. And corporations CANNOT be trusted with that kind of access/power

Note: Make the UX on Lemmy even worse to keep the Redditors out!
