There is a huge bot issue right now (started 3 days ago). All the numbers are worthless.
It’s a known issue, all admins should add captcha to the subscription page, delete the bots and re-compute the actual number of users. Unless we do that, we won’t have a correct number.
We can still look at the Monthly Active Users. Bots don’t post (yet)
Just check https://lemmit.online/c/itookapicture . Sadly only bot posts
This is a bot made to repost from reddit to generate content for remade subs, thought i don’t know if that’s the right thing to do, it’s not made purely to spam communities afaik
I have mixed feelings about this. We should try to get more people here to make this content. Maybe it’s just me but I when I see a whole page with bot posts I stay away from that community. I would rather see posts from real users, engage with them, share my thoughts with the author and I am not able to do that if it’s a copy from somewhere else made by a bot
Bots get a bad rep. Bots are fantastic, it’s just a shame they are prejuded to be bad. I’m sure signup has a bot mode on some instances.
They’re supposed to be bot posts. That’s what lemmit.online is for. To copy Reddit content into communities on lemmit.online.
