From what I can gather, a bot creates communities based on subreddits recommended to them by users, then fills said communities with posts from Reddit. I don’t really get the point of this, as 90% of posts it seems are just copied from Reddit but without any of the actual engagement, as the OP didn’t post it and no one is commenting. It just seems like clutter and a waste of space, but it’s also all over my feed. Anyone else confused?

    Yeah it doesn’t maker sense to me, either. When there is one in my feed I just block the account and scroll on.
