    There’s a couple communities that I have blocked perky because they’re importing posts from reddit. Not screenshots, but years to decades old posts that are archived. All the power to you to waste your server space, but do it quietly.

      I just joined lemme.ee today and just saw that…smh.

      Why are they doing that? I think it was r/games or something. Just lots and lots of automated posts…what’s the point? It just seems to destroy the chance of community and engagement if it’s just doing that. What’s the strategy that I’m not understanding?

        I think it’s to spark discussion among users

        For me all those bot accounts got annoying quick so I disabled them

      You should do that on a server you control so you can set timestamps and all correctly while importing directly to the DB, not just automate posting of it all
