I’m going to try the block all bots setting myself. perhaps it isn’t as less active active when the bots don’t just sometimes come in and post an article here or there. I’m gonna do a small personal test to see if it feels any different in a good or bad way over all.

another thing i’m confirming right now is that I don’t want there to just be bots. I was just saying that sometimes bots can help start conversations when people aren’t posting. when done right, it seems to work. sure it isn’t always done right, but there have been times when it started good conversations with real people in the post.
