What are your thoughts on this matter? How do you think social media platforms, particularly Lemmy, should handle advanced bots in the future?

ZK-proofs

This is a solution in the same way that PGP-keys are a solution. There's a big gulf between the theory and implementation.

Right, but the problem with them is "bad usability", which amounts to "friction".

Like I said in the original comment, I kinda believe that things will get so bad that we will eventually have to accept that the internet can only be used if we use these tools, and that "the market" starts focusing on building the tools to lower these barriers of entry, instead of having their profits coming from Surveillance Capitalism.
