I think lemmy content is scraped too, just how the whole web is beeing scraped. I do not have any proof for it though.
I have seen a user add a like anti-commercial AI license as a footer for every comment he writes lol
It is, I saw claudebot and gptbot scraping my instance, made a post about it on fuckai, but i have blocked all these bots now and my instance is a lot faster.
Out of curiosity, I am not familiar with the stack that runs the behind the scenes at all for lemmy. Are you blocking IP ranges or something else?
I use this nginx extension, it has a lot of rules, they mix IP, user agent, etc, to block a response it seems. Like adblocking rules, but for bots.
