miles

I've found a comment that I like that I want to reference in another community for discussion.

The link (the chain icon) on the comment is https://lemmy.world/comment/2024416 but this url produces an empty page using the lemmy.world web app. using old.lemmy.world this does seem to work: https://old.lemmy.world/comment/2024416 -- is this bug in the default web app, something weird with my setup, or am I misunderstanding something?

edit: looking at the request/response in Firefox Web Developer tools i see what a 400 error coming from cloudflare. does anyone else see this?

A 71-year-old Los Angeles man died in California’s Death Valley National Park on Tuesday, likely due to heat, as the afternoon high recorded in the park was 121 degrees, officials said. The Inyo County Coroner identified the deceased as Steven Curry.

Curry fell to the ground outside the restroom at the Golden Canyon trailhead, the Inyo County Sheriff’s Office and the national park wrote in a news release.

Before collapsing, Curry had been interviewed in the early morning by a Los Angeles Times reporter at Zabriskie Point; he had hiked about 2 miles from Golden Canyon to the point.

My community, !ultralight@lemmy.world, is small and relatively quiet for now but with Lemmy growing it's only a matter of time before bots show up.

Have any mods of larger communities dealt with any bots yet? Does the platform have any protection built in like AutoModerator, or will we end up using third party tools such as BotDefense? What has been your experience so far and what should moderators be doing to prepare?

edit: to clarify, i mean bad bots e.g. spam bots

Had to split post (because it's loo long?), see comments.
