So I was on the Mlem app and I see post after post made by bot. I’m assuming this really is a bot? Some new communities only seem to have posts made by bots, and in the text it says that they copied a post from Reddit. What’s going on? I don’t see the same thing when I’m on Lemmy through the weblink. Is there something I should do with those posts? Ignore them? Is there something wrong with the Mlem app?

    Totally agree. We need content and we need it fast, yes, but not that kind of content. It’s just theft.

    Check out the ratio of comments to posts on World News, which has more than one bot. And check the same ratio for this community. It doesn’t feel right, does it?
