It probably means that you have enabled the “everything feed” in liftoff settings. This aggregates content from all instances apparently, even those not federated with yours.

Edit: weird cause you seem to be on sh.itjust.works which is federated with Lemmy.world.

The python script only uses the open source Lemmy API. Everything else is contained within its few lines of code.

You have one user and has many comments and post as you make yourself. This means that your suspicion score is going to be extremely low (under .5 if you post 2 times on any server).

Agreed. If a better system comes along, great but in the meantime I am glad to have this kind of initiative to prevent us from being swarmed.

Mostly because it would invalidate any single user self hosted instance, which I fin is one of the big draws of the fediverse in general.

Indeed, thanks a million for giving the community tools at this critical juncture. Very much appreciated!

I feel like the python script is maybe a bit too extreme ? 20 times more users than posts might happen on smaller instances people use mostly to browse the big ones, I feel. I ran it with a suspicion ratio of 100 and it didn’t seem to block any “legit looking communities”. But then again, it is very hard to tell.

Thanks a lot for your work !
