Re: "Spam in Geminispace?"

In: s/AskGemini

I deleted the last option of this poll, where people who don't run a service could show their interest in the poll.At the time of deletion, the numbers were:

I deleted it, because now the results actually show the percentages of people running services and their experiences.

Just putting it out there, as someone who does both but not reflected in the poll for the sake of maintaining measurement between the split - the service I run by gemini-exclusive sign-up (misfin) produces *no* observable or measurable spam. In the contrary, my services which use web and/or email sign-up (mail, smtp, imap, php forward to mail) get light to barely noticeable spam. In case I could help provide some perspective with this. Thanks.

Spam in Geminispace? โ€” For those people who run a service in Geminispace where users can submit content, did you receive any spam or other abuse? If you want, you can add details in the comments. I'm aware that not many people are able to answer, but maybe you can point those people to this poll, if you like to. Thanks.
