    Would the email validation requirement make it even less likely that we get issues in case somehow they manage to automate their way out of the captchas? Also, thanks a lot for your work here :)

    And I also hope that most users there are real. We’re seeing many apps and improvements in the default website as well for lemmy. Communities are growing, discussions are improving, the pace of these improvements is also very impressive.

      It certainly makes it more difficult to automate sign-ups, but it can be worked around (same as the captcha)

        You’re gonna have to set up one on one calls with people who have verified their passports with selfies, and then do a personal visit to their homes.
