I would say that some bots were useful. Like the one that would convert the units from “freedom” oned to ones that actually make sense (or the other way around).
“Remindme” type bots are a band aid fix. Can you imagine if instead, the app/website/service provided that ? I shouldn’t have to see what you save now should I.
For the second point, mostly because nobody made an app that combined the two well and/or was popular. The “simple calendar” app let’s you create events AND tasks. I honestly don’t even get what you’re trying to get at with your second point.
Or, the remindme bot can be hidden in settings or visible only to the user who invoked him (but I often add myself to remindme of someone else so that would defeat the point).
Sweet jeebers, I hope this is comedy. I laughed, but 99+% of the bots roaming Reddit are nothing but a drag, and I hope there’s a way to block all bots here.

Also, I like the bot that summarized the article.
Lemmy needs a remindmebot, but built in
we’ve had calendar apps for years. I hated how that would litter comment threads.
Nope. Remindmebot was easier, quicker and reminded you in the thread you were reading.
If we can just use calendars, why do we have todo apps then?

Thank you! It was so annoying see !“remind me 40000 years” on comment threads

Okay, this one made me literally laugh out loud.
good bot

I believe bot accounts actually have a ‘bot’ tag applied to them, so in theory, yes! Just has to be added.
Added by me, or by the site’s software?
Sorry, I’m a doddering old man.
Haha, no worries. Either would work, really, lemmy/kbin could add it as an option, or somebody could make an extension/app to do it.
Lemmy does allow you to set a user as a bot, and there’s a separate checkmark to only see posts from non bots as I recall
YES that’s beautiful
Listen here you little shit…
