Mine? As miserable as ever. My little bro wanted to go to a little comic con thing, is just not my vibe, felt surrounded by people in weird costumes is just… Thankfully I was there for like half an hour.

    They’re not a bot, just a very zealous mod trying to keep traffic and posts happening in some smaller communities.

    Most lemmy apps and front ends also identify bot accounts with a bot icon next to the username.

      Sync does this. Although I think it might not be too accurate, because I think I’ve seen one or two actual accounts with the bot icon

        It’s a setting you can change in your lemmy profile, and having the bot setting turned on doesn’t stop you from posting manually.

        I’m not sure if it goes the other way around though so bad-faith bot posts pretending to be real people could probably still happen if the bot setting is never enabled.

        Edit: just to be clear Blaze is definitely not a bot but I don’t think bots necessarily have to have the bot icon.
