In your account settings there is an option to show content by bots; unfortunately this only works if that account is marked as a bot. For the bots I have found that are not marked, I’ve just been reporting and blocking them. It took a few days but now I rarely see them anymore
Sounds like you’re really missing the threads experience; why aren’t you there and posting 250 characters at a time?
It would not be that simple, considering they’d be running multiple instances and require more effort to aggregate, deduplicate, and stage that data - vs just having a single clean database for it
It does actually matter, because that is what is happening.
Head over to the gaming@beehaw.org link that you shared as an example and notice that the posts are 3+ days old and all the recent posts are from instances other than beehaw; this clearly shows that Lemmy.world has not been receiving any data from beehaw for some time already.
As for hurting Lemmy and driving people to threads, is a baseless argument; anyone wanting an experience that Threads offers is not coming to Lemmy; they would either already be there or would be coming from Twitter/Mastadon. Lemmy at its core is very far from what Threads/Twitter/Mastadon try to be.
So many folks on here are jumping on and claiming that decentralization is a one way or that people don’t know anything, but have failed to read the specifications themselves.

Servers SHOULD NOT deliver Block Activities to their object.
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/activitypub/
ActivityPub defines the Block activity for client-to-server (C2S) use-cases, but not for server-to-server (S2S) – it recommends that servers SHOULD NOT deliver Block activities to their object.
So as I mentioned before, Lemmy.world should be blocking those servers at the instance level, preventing it from sharing any data to any identified Facebook instances.
Sure this doesn’t stop Facebook from spinning up other instances, but that will improve a lot more effort on their side and will quickly be identified and blocked by the communities, just like all their urls for ads, api, etc. have been for years.
Anyone can do anything; the point is handing it over automatically and neatly into a database and ready for use.
There are also some method for disabling internet results in the start menu search; I will try to find the method I used tonight and share that.
Because we, the users of Lemmy.world, do not want our data handed over to Facebook
Start11 to bring back the windows 10 start menu is the only reason I am able to keep windows 11 as a daily driver.
I am still lost on how anyone thought the abomination of the windows 11 start menu and the inability to move the start bar to the side or top was a good idea.
Memmy for Lemmy on iOS and Mac is awesome
For the longest time Reddit only supported media through external sites (Imgur, copy, etc).
Memmy (iOS app in beta) supports uploading media to Imgur and then inserting the link, much like Apollo did; hoping to see that extended to other hosting sites as well
Let’s test it! 
Edit: trying to upload a video or gif throws an “unsupported” error - but hyperlinking gifs should work fine
The hardest part is finding a replacement application after using Apollo for so many years.
What a great time to get off Reddit
Only 135’ per 6 seconds though!
