I think it's either bots or some spooky spammers that are falsely reporting the number of users. e.g. lemmy.k6qw.com currently claims to have 44k users with no posts...

Yeah that's a bad instance.

There are many more bad instances like this in the statistics. I think it will become a problem for Lemmy sooner or later.
-
Probably! But in the mean time I bet some real people will join just because they see the numbers going up.
-
I believe instances can block other instances entirely, right? Or have I misunderstood that? This would mean none of those bots in there could ever post in our threads here. I'm sure there will be cooperation between the instances on this.

yes, it's called defederation.

I think with the extreme novelty, there will be LOTS of devs trying out new scripts and auto-doings.
I suspect that will be learned pretty fast, published to a group, then many of the bots will simply die out.
