    there should be a simple little checkbox in your settings if you don’t want to see bots.

      It kinda reads like you are saying ‘Someone should create this’ when you really mean ‘It is there if you look’.

        fair point, that was a bit of an ambiguous wording. thank you for clarifying for folks!

          I turned off bot accounts because there was (maybe still is but idk) so many Reddit bots just posting links, which wouldn’t be bad but there was 0 comments consistently so they felt more like spam to me

          Edit: this was back during the Reddit exodus when I made my lemmy account

            i found there to just be a few prolific reddit repost bots, so i just blocked them individually. i actually personally appreciate bots like that mbfc bot though.

            edit: fixed a typo
