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.
Not a huge fan of the reddit repost bots when we can steal content the old fashioned way by right-clicking!
I’m against it. Bots have poisoned other social media.
I really dislike them.
I thought bot posting may incentivate people to comment
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.
I don’t really like them, my feed is now polluted by bots. I’ve already blocked one that reposts Reddit content and I’ll probably beging blocking more of them

I block all post bots, i think they’re useless. Those on comments are fine, like the remindme, piped, link fixer, chatgpt, etc.
I forgot the username of the remindme bot ☹️
