I don’t like all the communities that moved from Reddit that are just using bots to cross post shit from Reddit to here. All those communities seem to have are the bot posts. I’m not commenting to a bot; it won’t respond. I don’t know how many humans would see it, because literally no content is posted by a human. I post my own content, but then it’s buried by the bot spamming stolen content.

I get the idea was to seed the community and make it appear active, but it just has the opposite effect. If I was to block the bot as I usually do because I don’t care to engage with bot content, that community would be dead. At the very least, hide the fact it’s a bot and make me believe it’s a human I’m talking to.
