Comment on [META] So... about the bots
Magnetar@feddit.de 1 year agoBut you wouldn’t hook up an RSS feed into lemmy, you would use the feed directly.
The interesting part is the user interaction, if it’s just a torrent of bot posts no user is interested in engaging.

I couldn't agree more with the last sentence. I would much rather have less content but knowing that everything I see some human in the other end found it worthwhile posting.

Agreed. I would much rather see fewer posts than bot content. A human OP is going to engage in conversation, and is also likely able to provide more context on the topic of their OP.
I've taken to blocking obvious bots (extremely high post:comment ratio) to keep the same feel as the fediverse had since "rexit".
