Full title: I hid a link on my website that only bots can see and told them not to follow it. They broke the rules and in 4 days they went 124,414 levels deep into an endless maze. One bot opened 782,580 doors. I thought this was super interesting, this is how the internet is these days. Thought I’d share.

lol not even a little. I’m trying to grow my lemmy communities. I have no problem with it being a bot, that’s why I haven’t blocked it. My issue is that it’s not declared as a bot. Several times I’ve found myself asking further questions to just realize, it’s that same guy who posted a “my super cool thing” five minutes ago and I won’t get a response to my question. There’s no way he has a jurrasic park themed turtle sanctuary in addition to the other 50 sweet things in his house/yard/town/
