Do we really need these many posting bots? - lemm.ee

Every day I am noticing more and posts by bots. At first it didn’t bother me as I thought bot posting may incentivate people to comment but since this rarely happens and now I think they are just polluting the communities. I know I can filter them but I wonder what is the general sentiment about this.

I am ok with bots as long as:

  • The posts are labelled clearly as such that it’s posted by a bot

  • The account itself has some clear indication that it’s a bot

    • By fulfilling this requirements, everyone can decide I’d they want to see these posts or block them.

    *** I block some bots…

    I actually dislike posts that have a bunch of clutter in the title… It just makes it look fake.
