Yeah skimming it very briefly, it looks like your instance doesn’t even show bot indicators, so, no way you could’ve known really. But there should be a button to turn it off somewhere in your user settings, probably down near the bottom.

I mean I can certainly understand where the confusion may have come from. Image
- Comment on Microsoft begins cracking down on people dodging Windows 11's system requirements 1 month ago:
Thank god, for a second there I thought they meant “cracking down on people dodging Windows 11 by intentionally disabling TPM,” like I’ve been doing. False alarm, carry on.
- Comment on Why are people downvoting the MediaBiasFactChecker not? 1 month ago:
“Oh, this new post already has a comment, let’s check it out! … Dang it!”
That’s pretty much my gripe. One time I saw a post with maybe six, seven comments, opened it up, and they were all either the bot, or replies to the bot.
And even if you block the bot the post still shows up as having comments. So you’ll open up a post boasting the aforementioned six or seven comments expecting to find a lively debate, or at least a wisecrack about global affairs, and leave with a bunch of tumbleweeds and the lingering knowledge that somewhere, two or more people are arguing with a machine about whether or not it thinks the newspaper is any good.

- Comment on Crooks Steal Phone, SMS Records for Nearly All AT&T Customers. 2 months ago:
“Security footage shows several ne’er-do-wells in domino masks fleeing the scene with a number of burlap sacks, clearly marked with bright green dollar signs, no doubt containing the compromised data. AT&T security suggests the culprits must have ‘jimmied open’ their servers with a crowbar, or perhaps a bundle of dynamite detonated via plunger from a safe distance. One suspect is currently in police custody after attempting to escape through a tunnel painted on the side of a brick wall. More on this story as it develops.”

- Comment on ‘IRL Fakes:’ Where People Pay for AI-Generated Porn of Normal People 5 months ago:
“Djinn”, specifically, being the correct word choice. We’re way past fun-loving blue cartoon Robin Williams granting wishes, doing impressions of Jack Nicholson and getting into madcap hijinks. We’re back into fuckin’… shapeshifting cobras woven of fire and dust by the archdevil Iblis, hiding in caves and slithering out into the desert at night to tempt mortal men to sin. That mythologically-accurate shit.
- Comment on Elon Musk's X claims it's now a 'video-first platform' as it tries to reverse an advertiser exodus that has cost it billions in value 8 months ago:
“Do it for the X” sounds less like a slogan for a hip new social media platform and more like the preamble to an algebra exam. Or a reminder to pay alimony.
Of course, I’d rather be doing either of those than using Twitter right now.
