I’m so tied of the bot spam in all these communities with 0 interactions showing up in the feed. For every one I block I swear 2 more show up. I don’t even get the point. Dead community maybe a few votes and just endless spam. Is there a block bots checkbox like there is a block nsfw
There’s supposed to be one in your account settings
there is.
“Show bot accounts”

Surely the bot accounts pay for all that bandwidth.

As a not bot and totally definitely human person, I do not have any moral or physical ailments which result in my emotional reaction of upsetness when being confronted with the idea that 47% of internet traffic is bots. My homo sapiens brain does not contain conflict on this issue.
Bots run 24/7. Humans only 8 hrs. We can’t win
If you’re only awake for 8 hours per day, you have a problem and should probably talk to your doctor.
Well isn’t this bot self-involved!
