yeah there are some misaligned incentives with founders

I thought about stackers "shaming" founders for tolerating AI slop in their territories, but not sure yet how I feel about that

If you look at where the user collected zaps, it appears the territory founders might either not reliably detect AI slop or possibly even not mind it or even appreciate the engagement it causes in their territory.

Most people are kind and will give new users the benefit of the doubt. I understand if territory owners "give back" posting costs by zapping posts. But I worry what happens if that is systematically exploited.

> How do you defend against this?

we need better economic tools

for example, territory founders could increase or decrease the fee for specific users to post, and the same is true for OPs and stackers for replies

so if I suspect someone is a bot, they will at least have to pay me to reply to me
