This is a two step process:
- Block the repost bots. Your experience will instantly improve
- Post something interesting. Complaints about lack of content don’t count. Bonus step: engage on existing posts.
Block the repost bots
The problem with this is endeavor is you’ll either need to block the 1.1M of alien.top bots or block the whole community.
Totally agree on #2 though.
But, any actual user posting something would either be lost in the noise of repost bots, or posting in a community blocked by many people.
I don’t see these ever driving engagement.
By all means, br the change, do post content, but you’re probably better off doing so elsewhere, in a community that’s not 99.999% bots already.Oh I block communities all right. But you nail the basic problem with the bots. Comments don’t matter because they’re list in a swirl of bot activity. On some subs I don’t even think there are people there.

This is one of them.
I’m currently building my blocklist so hopefully I won’t be seeing this place soon.
So far I’ve got 174 communities on my blocklist, that’s for ignoring the 1M bots coming from alien.top that post all over these.
The whole list doesn’t even fit in a comment, here’s a sneak peak,Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
Don’t let your dreams be Menes. Copy some posts elsewhere as your own if you have to?
The mirror service from alien.top was disabled earlier today.
Now all I can do is say “something something be the change you want to see” and PLEASE HELP:
- Go to https://fediverser.network and let’s create a comprehensive map of lemmy communities for all the tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of niche subreddits.
- Let people on reddit know that they can easily migrate by going to https://portal.alien.top and connecting their Reddit account.
I can try. I’m going to aim for once a week. Its not that I don’t like reddit posts. The problem is they are to frequent and not clearly marked as reddit

/Gestures broadly at this whole instance
The mirror bots from alien.top are already disabled.
