Has anyone ever actually clicked on those links that porn-bots spam everywhere? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I can kinda see it happening on mainstream internet, on YouTube etc. with witless non-nerds but I'm surprised to see it in places that inherently require one to be a tiny bit internet savvy, like Lemmy. I get that getting a bot spam the same message isn't exactly resource intensive but i still wonder if the cost-effort-return ratio is worth it.

My bad, I probably should've clarified that I meant clicking on it thinking that there's a respectable porn site on the other end lol but I actually don't recall ever clicking them, even by accident, so fun to hear there isn't anything more sophisticated there than just "hey, download this totally not suspicious .exe". Have you ever tried running those tools on a secure computer?
