- create account
- use AI or automated process to post tons of slop videos
- stupid people like, comment or share the video
- account’s engagement goes up
- now transition it into advertising
- sell it to a company. “Look, this account has 100k followers. How’s $10,000 sound?”

Good thing it doesn’t work here.
But it’s a known way to make money on the other site.

because there’s only a few thousand users here.
that’s why it isn’t commonplace; there’s no money in it. slop companies make more money on tiktok, facebook and other popular platforms…
…but Lemmy is not free from abuse of this type. If the fediverse was more popular it would start to see more slop content.
that’s my point. it does work here, because the same vulnerabilities exist, but isn’t common because it’s not as profitable as shitting in tiktok or facebook. :)

No, the same vulnerability does not exist here.
There are different vulnerabilities here, but this one isn’t there.
