I think the issue people have with those bots is it’s just someone trying to copy content from Reddit verbatim. And this isn’t Reddit. Lemmy has its own flavor and it’s not a Reddit copy, so the repost bots feel like it’s someone just trying to make this “the new Reddit”.
That’s what I don’t get: people here complain about bots reposting from Reddit, but those posts are also just reposted from somewhere else usually…
Sir, this is a meme.
But yes all content has to come from somewhere
