So on https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list you can see parapheum.com has currently 6112 users if you go to parapheum.com it has only 1 community, is this an example of botting? Or am I missing something since I am a one day old lemmy user.
You must log in or # to comment.
It’s also possible, being that it’s a new instance, it’s just being used to subscribe to communities outside of that instance.
I noticed a bunch of almost new instances shoot up by several thousand users yesterday as well. My guess is people are using bots to create thousands of accounts, and this is gonna result in all manner of issues soon enough.
