Am I just noticing them more now? It’s like every other post now is a bot. Please don’t tell me that lemmy is about to be like reddit where it’s only bots that post anything at all

On here? I haven’t noticed, but with the lax admission procedures on some instances spammers, scammers and bots are kind of inevitable.
In the really long term you’ll probably need an email address that needs a phone number that needs a physical address like everything else.
I don’t think people on Lemmy are too keen on requiring phone numbers… cuz privacy reasons…
Yeah, I’d much prefer micropayments in crypto (I swear that’s not just a string of buzzwords). HTTP even has codes built in for it, it just never took off because crypto and even paypal didn’t exist yet back then.
If you have nothing you, you get a dead internet space. There’s simply no reason for the mentioned people to not make endless sockpuppet accounts. That’s why the meatspace -> phone -> email chain arose in the first place, without anyone ever designing it as far as I’m aware.
