Every post i try to open brings me to one of these stupid bot posts with the comments from the post I’m trying to interact with. I’ve just started blocking the bot account as it happens then i can open up the post i was interested in.

It’s not the bots, it’s a Lemmy bug.
Fixed soon hopefully.

Edit: websockets issue
The problem was a user cross posting to irrelevant communities. The user account has been banned.
That might be a different issue from what I was seeing. The posts I saw were valid posts in the community where they were posted, but I was seeing them replacing different posts. However, it was definitely a glitch.
I’d click on a post, and the post that would appear would be different. Sports posts for the most part, but not always. The comments would be from the one I had intended to open. If I’d go back and click on it again it would usually open correctly the second time (or sometimes the 3rd or 4th).
Oh. That should be fixed with the update to v0.18.1 that lemmy.world is waiting on.
If this is the websockets issue, it’s the same thing the latest Lemmy software update is designed to patch once it’s incorporated by instances, correct?
That’s what I’ve been told.
Thanks. I was wondering why this was happening to me
