Sorry for the flood on the "new" feed

I created an instance, and was thinking it as a normal self-hosted server where I can do whatever I want with no worries, and learned in a bad way that it’s on a federation and we still have to follow some rules.

I have a lot of AI generated stuff that I wanted to make visible on Lemmy, and made a bot to upload all of it in a community.

So far it wouldn’t create a flood, but then I subscribed to it with my lemmy.world account. I wanted to test it, and I wanted the community to be searchable on lemmy.world.

This last step is the one that messed up. Lemmy’s new feed apparently doesn’t impose any limit, and a new server publishing thousands of posts in a few minutes flooded lemmy.world’s new feed.

That wasn’t my intention and I apologize for that.

AFKBRBChocolate,

They were posted from a different account than this one, right? Pretty sure I just blocked that account so I didn’t see more than the first page or two.

can,

Takes a brave person to browse new these days anyway

slazer2au,

Disabling NSFW makes new fine.

can, (edited )

Because bad actors are totally going to properly use the nsfw toggle?

slazer2au,

Your right, but I have only come across one post that wasn’t tagged correctly.

Chickenstalker,

This is what a replicant would say. How do we know you’re not a robot?

crowbar,

Lets give them the captcha test!
