@wolf480pl@mstdn.io >they said they will filter bot votes after the bots have already voted eh, same shit different ass >but I don't know they're gonna have enough information in a vote to be able to discern that... Even with more info, especially in the age of LLMs that's especially difficult. Even Steam can't hope to figure it out, they add a notice telling you that a game might've been review bombed, but that's mostly it. If from a computer's perspective it basically only sees "1, 2, 3 or 4", how the heck is it supposed to be able to tell if a flood of 3s is made of illegitimate votes or if it's just a legit popular opinion? Are they supposed to supplement it with a lot of device info and fingerprinting which they then cram into an algorithm to guess if you're human or not? At that point it loops back to "no thanks". And even if they did it'd end up like the captcha system, where anyone running linux or another "less common" configuration would essentially be excluded from the vote.
