First of all, L4s (sorry misspelled in titel) is not a real user, so no harm done here.

It’s an automatic bot xposting from reddit, making this community just as bad as r/technology, which kind frankly only revolves around politics and social media platforms.

I’ve had the user blocked 2 weeks now, and this community is muuuuch more enjoyable and is actually about technology now.

Just wanted to share a positive experience.

    Their agenda is “noble” (keep the content flowing here), but the reality is what the OP mentioned. I stopped going to the technology reddit sub because it was tiring to sift through the doomscrolling.

        Or segment into more than 1 bot. 1 tries to only surface tech, another is less choosey. Then we block per taste. I’m not talking about 5 bots. 2, maybe 3.

            as a bot writer

            Ooh, how does one make a Lemmy bot? A couple of communities I moderate could benefit from a bot to post regular threads based on a template or respond to comments that contain key phrases.
