Much better statistic than total users due to all the spam bots recently created.

[-] MicroWave@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I think so too, at least until the bots activate.

Begun, the clone wars have

What is the evidence that they are bots and not people who just lurk?

[-] Coeus@coeus.sbs 2 points 1 year ago

50 thousand registered users all at once on an instance with no posts and no activity. Lurkers usually don't need to make accounts. It's very suspicious.

There are servers with 6-7 thousands accounts all created almost at the same time and no user activity at all.

Did lurkers decide to select some servers to be "lurking-only" servers? Hardly.

This website recommends a random server for people to join: https://join-lemmy.org/instances. Could that be the reason?

[-] ulu_mulu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Random servers are not always the same, recommendations change in time based on servers activity.

Lurkers don't organize themselves to all go to the same servers.
