What is this automatic repost madness that happens with certain hashtags?

I havent been here for a while and somebody changed the furniture. Is this the enshitification of mastodon?

how to opt out? why is it not opt in? is it a good idea to opt out?

questions upon questions.

I was just minding my business.

Please direct me to a couple of things to read..

The reposting bots accounts have in their profile one should have the hashtag nobots in the profile and posts.. who informed me of that in the first place?

Like, this should be opt in and not opt out.

manual repost by humans of course fine,..

Very creepy.
