So shout out to people behind the Lemmy bots. Obviously, the goal of these posts is to make people feel more comfortable with the content switch. Great for lurkers. However I am seeing some community bots for stuff that feels like it’s supposed to be a discussion post but with no OP to discuss. The main candidate being something like https://lemmit.online/c/aitah

The problem is that now we have a community that is, for lack of a better word, spammed with bot posts, and where actuall posts will get lost in the feed. If we could contain these to a bot only community or instance, it would enable those who want to hide them, to easily do so

    Boots should be flagged in their name and it’s all or nothing but you should have a “Show Bot Accounts” option in your settings.
