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.
Disagree with your first point. If the account itself is labelled as a bot then that’s good enough. I’m mostly on Jerboa and it adds an icon next to bot accounts’ usernames.
That’s literally their first point. How do you disagree with it when you have and use it? What?
The distinction you are missing is indicating the post is from a bot rather than indicating the account is a bot. The difference in that distinction is that many Lemmy readers will not indicate anywhere on a post that it is from a bot simply because the account is labeled as a bot.
