It's fascinating to monitor the migratory paths of bots as they adopt new calls, new plumage, and seek new safe havens to nest in.

Bots are of course attracted to electric vehicles as they provide free, abundant power sources

Not all bots come from Russia! Some make their homes in places like Brasil, known for its broad range of complex biomes; a natural habitat for bots.

Bots are naturally attuned to radio signals, so it's no surprise they find comfort in radio-based French nesting grounds.

Have YOU seen a flock of bots in the wild? Your Fediverse service provider is probably interested - let them know!
Last season we tracked 1,804 bots, and unlike endangered species, they are proliferating, always finding new grounds to start building their nests.
If you are an avid Bot Watcher, you can track last season's migratory patterns here:
The new season starting in April is underway, and we've already tracked over 300 new bots!
But we can't do it alone, we need Bot Watchers everywhere to report their sightings!
@jaz thanks, I hate it.
Do we need a different word for fake accounts that generate misinformation, and useful automated accounts that provide services, information or entertainment?
Asking for a friend who makes the second.
@jaz that's good!
I think that Fediverse people are sophisticated enough to know the difference between @userboxes or @levelbot and a disinformation campaign, even if we call them both "bots".
