Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

If you allow comments at all, you are gonna get spam. That spam will range from "please buy good vitamins from my holy web site" to horribly illegal eye-destroying things.
Yep, this is a immutable fact about the internet.
LLMs are really good for filtering this. Their deeper understanding of languages and context allows them to detect things like misspellings or ads that can get around other filters.
I'd caution against this - my gut reaction is that they'd also block people who happen to speak somewhat "unnaturally", like non-native speakers, neurodivergent folks and non-america/europeans.
Honestly, unless you expect to run at the scale of something like a big Mastodon server or get really popular, manually approving comments with a simple home-rolled capcha (that bots won't recognise) should be enough.
