    They made the general user number explode for sure, but those bots are not really active yet, so they don’t count as “active users”.

      If they’re like NewsUser and Botittest, the bots will flood this place when they start. Even though these two good bots have made this place a lot more usable, it feels like that’s what the “All” thread has become. Just news.

      Don’t get me wrong, I like the news feed, but now I understand why it became a separate thread in Reddit.

      Whichever the instances that lowered their guard were, there will be a day they will have to be defederated. It’ll be a test for this place, for sure.
