I have read a few people mention it being an issue on here, but now I am starting to see it myself, blatant bots posting really crappy AI images. I do not want this to turn into Facebook with shrimp Jesus, so I’m just wondering what can be done to prevent bots from polluting the airwaves here. Any ideas, or work being done on this front?

    This is just regular moderation, though.

    It’s using the existing tool, but making a small portion of them (approving applications) available to a much larger pool of people

    it doesn’t resolve the question I raised about what happens when two instances disagree about whether an account is a bot.

    If the instance that hosts it doesn’t think it’s a bot, then it stays, but is blocked by the instance that does think its a bot.

    And if the instance that thinks its a bot also hosts it, it gets shut down.

    That is regular fediverse moderation
