   Ngl, these spammers I've been dealing with on pixelfed.social try to get past mitigations and I've devised a few ways just to fuck with them and it's kinda fun

   I've eliminated every incentive by restricting their visibility and reach, yet they continue

   What they don't realize is I've been preparing for "the event", paying close attention to their behaviors and vote rings, and classifying it all in the next gen Autospam

   Prevent spam before it happens with @pixelfed Precog #soon

     @martijn @pixelfed Not at the moment, we'll be doing something similar to that soon.

     The only downside is false positives and accusations of censorship, but nobody likes spam

     @dansup @pixelfed do you serve them custom pages as if it looks like they succeeded and then use that data as a honeypot?
