Every day I am noticing more and posts by bots.
At first it didn’t bother me as I thought bot posting may incentivate people to comment but since this rarely happens and now I think they are just polluting the communities.
I know I can filter them but I wonder what is the general sentiment about this.
I really dislike them.
When a bot posts the same gardian link to every news community and then do the same thing for the next article, it kills any chance for comment as the poster is never present in the thread. Example: [email protected]
Many are low grade scams. Example: This user screams scammer to me [email protected]
Others are just marketing spam. Example: This user is just a marketing bot posting over and over links to the same site. [email protected]
I wish actual humans would also stop reposting shit. Karma farming is not necessary on Lemmy or Kbin.
