I know probably not the perfect place to post this but want to get the discussion started and don’t know enough to be scared or not: because of the decentralization of Lemmy, is it extremely vulnerable to malicious/ad bots, astroturfing, spam and such?
Federation is like email. Maybe you signed up for email at gmail, and that’s the server your account lives on, but you can still email people with @yahoo or @hotmail accounts, even though their accounts are on different servers.
It’s like Reddit and email had a baby.
