I was thinking about that. In theory if I can see it, what is stopping a bot from grabbing it. I notice when I use search engines they have no problem seeing what is inside reddit - so there has to be a way to create a bot that does this. I'm just not programmer savvy in that way to know how it works.

This is good to know, will it still work with the API changes?
I keep hearing this but all the VPS solutions I find cost an arm + leg. What VPS solutions cost $30/year?
What are the decentralized p2p storage options for hosting bots, would decentralized hosting and storage options be a viable solution?
Well considering it should be really difficult to mod in coming days, make accounts and spam the sub sending people over seems to be the best way to counter this move. Make it hurt knowing that subreddit took away the tools Mods need to moderate effectively.
man lemmy really has to come up with an easier way to handle other instances within the fediverse.
Do you have any plans to rally the community of r/piracy to come over as an act of rebellion, to raise down the former r/piracy subreddit in a flood of comments and bots in a show of protests - or tis the act done? Onward and upward from here, no looking back.
You say prepubescent child - pubescent children are still children, anything to do with a real child under the age of consent is a child. If you are an adult that looks like you are under the age of consent, should you not be OK with your sexuality? I struggle with my sexuality because people mistake me for a teen, but that is my hang up and I would not condemn others for embracing their body. Unless - are you suggesting that it is only bad if it resembles a prepubescent child?
It does not matter if a community has 2 people or 150 people, whoever is a member of the community at the time their voice matters. And they can revisit that as the community continues to grow.
I think each person should be allowed to choose what that line is for them, and not have that line chosen for them.
Disclaimer: I was a victim of child SA, I do not support or condone SA. But I DO support pedophiles who have never and will never act on their desires having a SAFE NONVIOLENT FICTIONAL outlet for their perverted fantasies, if anything so they don't take that shit out on innocent children.
That's the love I'm talking about. I went on reddit after being here, and my comments were autobanned, shadow blocked, or downvoted even though I put thought into them. On reddit I dread karma points because so many subreddits used it as a means to measure my value. Here - I wrote comments across the fediverse, closed my eyes and waited to get beat with sticks - and when that didn't happen, I realized - the emotional trauma of reddit is real. I don't even talk much on reddit because I'm afraid of speaking - but here it feels different. I just can't go back to that.
I am very new to kbin, and have not figured out how to get that link to bring me back to kbin so that I can login and comment without making an account in lemmy.world. A lot of the points mentioned in that thread suggest taking a higher ground. Before I stepped into this thread I definitely was for razing them to the ground and rallying to create hell - but the mixture of positive vibes here as mellowed me out. In reddit, people who disagreed in mass would have been downvoted into oblivion and I would have only saw people who swung one way or another, but here I really get to see the perspective of multiple people. It's refreshing.
