Every day I am noticing more and posts by bots.

At first it didn’t bother me as I thought bot posting may incentivate people to comment but since this rarely happens and now I think they are just polluting the communities.

I know I can filter them but I wonder what is the general sentiment about this.

    I wish actual humans would also stop reposting shit. Karma farming is not necessary on Lemmy or Kbin.

      There is no karma on Lemmy, though. So they are appealing to good ol’fashioned spamming.

        I mean… There is… It’s just hidden by the default UI. It’s exposed in voyager… You have 904 comment karma for example (and no post karma).
