Comment on Bots increase online user engagement but stifle meaningful discussion, study shows
dumblederp@aussie.zone 2 weeks agoIt’s not enshittification, but there’s a bunch of crappy rss bots on lemmy reposting low quality content pulled from various feeds. I feel like they’ve abandoned and been left to run creating internet litter around this site. I’ve started blocking them because I’m not against bots as a concept, but poorly written or with bad sources they can get pretty tiring. One of the things I appreciate about diggs $5 account fee is that it’d hopefully limit the amount of spam on the site.
