And that it’s properly formatted lol. But serious, the biggest spam I see here are users complaining about bots without evidence that they’re a real problem. I believe a lot of them are simply scrapping reddit and posting that content here or are otherwise folks who don’t want to see redditors migrating. My take is: Welcome aboard everyone! Make an account and say hey wherever you like to become an active user.
Oh absolutely. Always find it ironic that on reddit people are so quick to accuse each other of being bots and shills when in reality the real bots are easy to spot, and the real shills are busy doing AMAs.
And it’s deleted ha. These sorta “bots” are just users trying to be smart and relevant by just copy/pasting what results they get from ChatGPT. Gj calling that out.
I’m not dismissive, just acknowledging one reason why that not everyone is happy about the new folks (there’s always a weird in crowd nbd.) The comments I read are using this bot suspicion to lash out at redditors because the topic of bots keeps coming up in feeds. This post is simply reflecting a general positivity about growth even if it isn’t in the most ideal way.
It seems that those of us who look beyond the hype are a minority. Lemmy has potential but also serious problems. Bots are an obvious one, meta and co invading sooner or later is another. Tankies are something that we need to keep talking about and keep an eye on any politically influenced moderating, esp. on lemmy.ml

It’s ironic that this post about addressing potential bot problem is mostly likely written by ChatGPT.
Notice how repetitive the use of “This can help” is?

Interesting observation. Did not notice on my first read…
