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.

    it is worsening imo but for me it’s because the comments on here are generally cynical, negative, and talking down on people. it’s better when you get into more niche communities but I have definitely slowed down with commenting :/ (Which I guess isn’t helping the problem)
