At this point I’m starting to wonder if you’re a Reddit agent provocateur.

Because if my goal were to keep people from adopting Lemmy, I’d absolutely spend my time telling one of the few people actually posting content to stop posting, while contributing almost nothing myself.

Thankfully, I don’t actually think you’re a Reddit operative. I just think you’re making a bad argument.

If you want a better feed, post better content. That’s how communities grow.

That’s not how Lemmy.World defines a bot account.

From the Lemmy.World Terms of Service under Bot Usage and Guidelines:

“Automations used only for scheduling posts do not require marking the account as bot if the account is otherwise used by a human.”

That’s exactly my setup. I use automation to schedule posts, but I use the account myself for comments, discussions, moderation, and everything else.

You can dislike high-volume posting, but that’s a separate discussion from whether the account is a bot. Even Lemmy.World’s own policy draws that distinction.

nooooo. stfu… no way you got a big D for that

You have 3 posts in the last 11 months and you’re lecturing someone else about contributing?

I’m actually posting content that gives people something to read, discuss, or ignore. You’re contributing… what, exactly? Complaining that someone else is doing the work you won’t.

If you think the feed is “flooded,” the solution is simple: post something better. But that would require putting in more effort than writing insults.

Calling me “a bot made of meat” is especially rich coming from someone whose contribution history is indistinguishable from an inactive account. Spectating isn’t the same thing as participating.

Im not a bot. its really frustrating that there seems to be clearly a reddit subversive operation going on where reddit agent provoacteurs are acting as “concerned citizens” trying to sabotage lemmy adoption. absolutely ridiculous

Yeah no - lets remove all content and have an empty dead community - that would be so great /s

Im not a bot - This isn’t a bot issue - it’s an activity issue.

If you look at the community, there are barely any submissions from anyone else. The only reason my posts dominate the front page is because I’m one of the few people consistently posting there.

I’d honestly love for that to change. If more people started sharing builds, news, benchmarks, or discussions, the front page would naturally become much more diverse.

So rather than assuming “bot,” the better takeaway is: this community could use more contributors.

you’re assuming there’s a crowd of posts being buried. There isn’t. The community is simply very quiet. I’m posting because almost nobody else is. If more people participated, my posts would quickly become a much smaller percentage of the front page.

im not a bot

yeah. Ive stopped creating new reddit accounts. too much effort.
lemmy all the way now

hes doing gods work there

reddit, man , it sucks so hard now sure - they can use AI and ban all the free speech - just noone is gonna use it. fuck em then

not gonna disclose. lemmy is brigaded by reddit operatives who would certainly love to be able to ban my crawlers.

they probably said as much, they should have kept story short - out of wheels straight into my windshield. license plate. nothing else. insurance wont be spending time figuring it out. glass is cheap, agent time isnt.

I feel like a lot of guys do this “building for their girlfriends” - but I have troubles believing chicks actually into gaming much
