Most postings on lemmy are simply Reddit “archive” bots. Why is this so prevalent?

    I think the effect here is more good than bad. Nobody wants to post to a community that’s just bot spam. You’re trying to skip the small community phase in favor of faking being a previous community with bots, but that phase is essential for community development and cohesion.

      I agree with you. I’m not actively promoting bot use, just explaining the thought process of those that use them.
