minus-squareeatham 🇭🇲@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up54arrow-down1·1 year agoYour opinion is not unpopular, everyone wants these dumb repost/article bots that post the same link in 15 communities gone.
minus-squarejonne@infosec.publinkfedilinkarrow-up13·1 year agoYeah, initially I thought it would be a good idea to kick-start discussion for certain communities, but in practice nobody comments on those posts. I ended up blocking the bots too.
minus-squaresparklingsquirrel@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up10arrow-down1·1 year agoThe reason I personally don’t comment on those bot posts is because there’s no real OP that might be interested in my answer/opinion so I think “Why even bother?”.
