It seems to me that over the last two weeks, the Lemmy experience has been worsening. My front page and communities are filled with Reddit re-posting bots.

While this gives off a feeling of being active, it’s like a ghost town invaded by AI.

But if I block these bots, I also take the risk that I’m unable to participate in actual conversations between non-bot Lemmy participants.

    Came here looking for this question, thanks! I hope there will be clear instructions for this going forward posts/all feel quite unusable at the moment because of bot content. Is it an evil plan to redirect people back to reddit?
