Reddit hivemind has been a thing for the entire history of Reddit.

But not this strong. Since the fuck spez event, you can barely get any answers in the help subs, and you get instantly downvoted when you say something different. They once banned me from a subreddit and suspended me for 7 days from the entire platform because I said „No”. This place is much better, but it feels empty.

Don't worry, it is empty and thats what makes it better.

Oh and there is already a hive mind mentality on Lemmy.

BTW, I think spez is bottotting shit to inflate reddit usage, and hive mind hijacking is a easy way to do so.

I haven't seen the hivemind stuff here yet luckily. Also, what is „hive mind hijacking”, I haven't heard about that before.

I think you might need to take a look at lemmygrad or hexbear, they are a hivemind.

And hijacking as in gathering the time between a certain number of votes (in general) and letting the bots they use vote as well and in a non obvious way. At least thats basically how I coded my reddit bots back in the days...

They might be blocked on lemmy.world, I haven't ran into them in a long time. Also, thanks for the explanation!

They are, hexbear users were downright unbearable. (Heh)

Oh yeah, also their giga emote spams, but also just generally annoying.
