I am glad that CrapAI crawlers are totally ignoring the Geminiverse... It is really pissed me off that now to open whatever forum you have to wait 5 to 10 seconds, or click to a button because "I'm human".

@half_elf_monk my VPN looks spared by CrapAI crawlers, I guess the smolweb is ignored by ignorance… · 1 day ago

It is for sure that there exists crawlers in the geminiverse. That means that AI crawlers can be also here. · 1 day ago

Hey, at least you don't have to deal with capcha stuff on the gemini net. · 1 day ago

That said, who says CrapAI crawlers (and bots) aren't using the gemiverse? maybe the low overhead means they're doing this, but unobtrusively. · 2 days ago

I absolutely love the lack of ads. BIG thanks to everyone who runs these servers without them (notably @martin and @skyjake). You guys are great. I bet the immensely low overhead to running a server for this protocol contributes, making it possible. · 2 days ago

And, unlike EVERYTHING else, it's not drowning in advertising and commercial entertainment! · 2 days ago
