iforgotmyinstance,

I’ve just been blocking rehost bots by username.

Or community if the purpose of the community is literally just links to reddit post of an article.

mojo,

There’s luckily an option to hide bot posts, something Reddit never had. Reddit was filled with them as well, but they disguised themselves as regular users. I don’t see anything wrong with it, also creates posts to comment under. I don’t see OP usually adding much to posts, but go there for the comments anyways.

papabobolious,

I started blocking them to avoid my feed looking like some eerie ghost town

unpainted_apple,

Haha I totally understand you! Its like community mods think content in it self will make the community take off - but I think it’s engagement and conversations that will…

AFKBRBChocolate,

Yeah, I don’t tend to comment on things posted by bots.

jesterraiin,

your profile settings > disable Show Bot Accounts > save

That’s a good start.

half_built_pyramids,

Agree. If i see a whole feed of half-cut-off news posts, I don’t go into that community.

I wouldn’t call this a shower thought, but what do you mean?
