Is it just Kbin, or does every fediverse service have the issue of being totally swarmed with bots advertising illegal pharmaceuticals? Is this just the result of limited moderation?
Kbin seems more affected than others from what I can see in reports but it exists on other instances too.
It is a moderation issue in the sense that it is too easy for these bots to sign up. Individual instances could improve this by requiring an application for example.
With Lemmy, we have seen huge numbers of bots at times but most large Lemmy instances have registration applications turned on. As in you apply to join an instance instead of just being able to make an account.
By default this means waiting for manual approval of your account, but many instances set up automated approval behind the scenes.
This function means many spam bots are averted before the public sees them, and also spammers avoid instances with registration applications.
I mention this because Kbin, or at least Kbin.social, doesn't appear to have registration applications which makes it a prime target for spam.
Also Lemmy has coordination between dozens of instance admins sharing details of spammers. I.e. a lot of hard work behind the scenes. I'd guess the lack of moderation at the admin level also accounts for part of the issue on kbin.
(A lot of Lemmy spam also comes via federation from Kbin.social, so much that many instances block high spam communities on Kbin and some block Kbin completely).
Looks like another Have I Been Pwned, at least at a glance they're looking for email addresses, and given that you have your email with them if you're using this service they kinda do have it already
Well the next stage of birds in the manufacturing environment is to die in an inconvenient spot then get a plant wide meeting about keeping the doors closed.
The decision to build freeways instead of rail in the post-war years, along with the low-rise single-zoned suburbs it promoted, has been an absolute planning disaster.
But the mistake can be fixed, and freeways can be removed.
City Beautiful's Dave Amos @citybeautiful has an interesting look at some of America's endangered freeways, and how communities can get them removed:

@halm Diaspora only federates with Friendica (because the latter has diaspora protocol support). Friendica doesn't have its "own protocol", it uses ActivityPub with its own proprietary extensions IIRC.
Hi, ich blicke hier noch nicht ganz mit der Namensgebung durch. Magazine sind quasi die Subs/Communities, richtig? Aber was soll der Unterschied zwischen Thema und Beitrag sein?
@Ranslite Beitrag ist quasi das was du auf mastodon hast und Thema ist das was du auf Lemmy hast. Magazine sind communities, ja. Namensgebung ist schwer und wir haben bisher auch nur den Konsens dass wir es so wie es jetzt ist nicht mögen 😅

K-League Lingard is so messed up that it cannot survive in Korea.
"This is the most important contract in the 41-year history of the K-League."
On February 8, FC Seoul officially announced the joining of Jesse Lingard.
This is definitely not something FC Seoul can be proud of because after all, the Korean K-League has never been a dream location for popular stars. So, when the former England international and "King Lingard" ” choosing the K-League as the next stop, the effect was: Immediate results. Not only were there a large number of fans welcoming him to the airport, but his 1,000 number 10 shirts were also sold out within 2 hours, the first round set a record of 51,670 people, the highest in the K League since 2013. Article write LATEST
But as a professional player, compared to his appearance off the field, Lingard's appearance on the field shocked Korean fans. After 6 rounds in the K-League, Lingard only appeared in 3 matches, averaging 24 minutes/match, scoring and assisting unsuccessfully. In the past 3 rounds, Lingard was simply removed from the playing list due to poor physical fitness. Some media even speculated that FC Seoul considered expelling him.
Why is Lin Huang, who was once extremely arrogant, struggling in the K-League?
Last summer, Lingard became a free agent after ending his contract with Nottingham Forest. At that time, many football clubs were contacted by him, not many people could have thought that he would be unemployed for 8 months.
West Ham United coach Moyes once wanted to re-sign Lingard. The Scottish coach is extremely familiar with him. In addition to his time leading Manchester United in the 2013-2014 season, the two also worked together at West Ham United in the second half of the 2020-21 season. Under Moyes, Lingard played the best performance of his career.
But after a month of training with the team, West Ham voluntarily waived him. British media revealed that the main reason is because Moyes and the coaching staff believe that Lingard's physical condition is worrying and is far from reaching the Premier League level. Then there were reports of Wolves and Everton being interested in him, but nothing came of it.
Seeing that the new season has begun, Lam Hoang no longer has the ball to play and can only look outside Europe. Gerrard, the coach of Saudi Dammam Association football club, invited Lingard to Saudi Arabia for a trial last October, during this period, although Lingard was occasionally reported to smile and perform very well. eye-catching in training, but Gerrard's reply three weeks later was that the club did not agree to a contract.
As for the cause, it is self-evident. If even the Saudis who are not short of money are not willing to spend money to sign Lingard, then you can imagine how poor Lingard's competition level is.
At the same time, the value of free agent Lin Huang in Germany has dropped from 40 million euros at his peak to 6 million euros.
As time soon turned to winter, Lingard received another offer from West Bromwich Albion, but he was not ready to commit to the English Championship. Besiktas from the Turkish National League also made a contract offer with a weekly salary of £50,000 but Lin Huang also refused.
Seeing that the winter transfer window in Europe had closed, Lingard still could not find a new home, and even angrily fired his management company team, and the boss behind the new company again. is a Korean. This also explains why Lingard chose to sign with FC Seoul in early February.
According to The Athletic, Lingard finally chose the K-League after turning down 25 offers, clearly a somewhat confusing decision to outsiders. After all, the weekly salary of 17,500 pounds that Seoul FC offers is the maximum salary of the K-League but in fact it is not high compared to other salaries.
The real main factor that made Lingard decide to come to Korea was that he wanted to develop his own personal brand JLingz in Korea. As early as last year, the Korean e-sports team Liv Sandbox officially announced its cooperation with Lingard. Korea is a powerhouse in e-sports. Lingard also has its own e-sports team. Open your own esports team. market in Korea.
Man this is a huge wall of text with zero context for why the broader c/gaming community would be interested in this. Did you mean to post this in a more specific community about what I presume is a specific e-sport for a game which has not been named in this entire wall of text?
Edit, holy shit is this entire post about actual people playing actual soccer? This isn't even about a video game?
@paul@homeassistant@homeassistant@homeassistant@homeassistant For entity ids I stick to english with the entity name being translated since the ids are used in code which is english.
I did make the mistake of translating them to start with but got flack from people who couldn’t make common templates etc. much like you’ve experienced.
I’ve not seen official guidance either way but core integrations seem to not translate them.
