I’d recently blocked “LadyButterfly she/her” because I was getting fed up of her constant low effort ragebait, so I was surprised to see this post appear on my feed - it turns out she’s posting from multiple instances, presumably to get around either blocks or bans.
Yup. Also the post captions always read a bit too engagmentey, if that makes sense? Like either the account is a bot, or it’s one that being run cynically by a farm who’s following a set of guidelines to maximize reach over anything like sincere interest or value or humanity.
It’s hardly tinfoil hat time - I defy you to name a single poster anywhere on Lemmy who reads more like a repost bot or engagement farmer than that particular user.

People who get stirred to rage by someone momentarily impressed by mild and inconsequential pettiness: “This is some kind of social media conspiracy.”

Shit, is she getting paid? How do I sign up?
I browse by subscribed, so I don’t see a lot of stuff. But off the top of my head? Stamets, King, Mickey7, probably others I don’t recall.
Pretty sure OP switched instances some time back if you’re wondering why you see her stuff.
