    That’s been going on for quite some time. Back before the migration i can see some user intentionally combing reddit to find out who is botting and calling them out. Of course, no action taken.

      It’s way worse now though. I don’t know if the bots ramped up or if there’s just more exposure since there’s fewer users but it is so much more obvious now. But yeah, OP should not be surprised to see repost bots. What’s worse is how many comments are now bots too, and not just repost bots of popular comments, buts actual LLM responses.

        Damn, it’s just sad. I guess the smaller sub still better? It’s always the big time waster sub that have this issue back then, while the smaller sub tend to be more organic.
