I wouldn't say swamped...I think 3 or 4 in the last few days. I would think a good farm is monitoring the Newbies feed for first posts, especially right now with the public coverage that BlueSky is bulking up quickly.
The ones I've gotten are the same thing I see on FB or Insta: a picture that in no way matches the name, vacuous description that kind of looks like a dating profile (I assume, been hitched since online dating started) and one or two posts.
I’ve seen some ’close to the edge’ accounts but I’ve blocked and moved on with my life
Blocking works over here so all’s good
I’ve got a couple following me for some reason but I expect them to die of boredom soon
I've had a few bots, but I subscribe to some NSFW content, which is the only area I've seen them so far. And it definitely hasn't been as aggressive as Twitter.
I'm not. But I just joined a week ago, I'm only following a few people, and just a few groups. Dunno if that makes a difference or if it's how I set it my profile...which I left at mostly defaults.
Maybe. But also check to see who’s on the lists. I subscribed to some of these before discovering, way at the bottom, there were some mutuals that I want to see. I created my own moderation list because of that.
Few if any posts, a few pictures of the woman with some clothing on, maybe a dog, cat, or child. They follow me, message me out of the blue. I block them, three more show up, one wants to message after no interaction. It’s pretty boring but takes a minute or two to block them.
I’m seeing the same sort of pretty women with large breasts who are looking for someone special/want a hookup/DM them for special services etc that are all over Tribel now. Russian bots are everywhere. It may be an attempt to slow down sites that oppose DonOld.
I've been spammed a couple of times since starting with this app this week, but nothing like Twitter and accounts are easy to block if they do spam me.

I have no idea what they're up to.
here? I can count on the fingers of my left hand how many I've seen since I joined almost a year ago
maybe I'm not attractive enough...
VERY few.
so their whole bsky is suspect, their claim to bot swarming is both a confession and shit stir

It's also likely tracked so be very careful of links
But I have noticed the white genocide trolls... Luckily, the folks on here are diligent in creating block lists.
Blocked 2 this morning, and this is only my second day here.
so maybe they are catching the bots?
And, several other accounts offering unusually attractive business opportunities ...
(but still not so many as on the Other Side)
