Alien.top’s raison-d’etre is to create bots and repost things from Reddit.

The instance makes a bot with the same username as the poster from reddit, then makes a bot with the same username as all the commenters, and re-posts each comment.

Every alien.top user in this thread is a bot.

I did a quick check, and it looks like 138 of the comments are bots.

    I am aware of what they have said their goal is, but it’s not how alien.top works.

    It would also be one thing if a user opted in to have their own content mirrored, but it’s not a user-by-user basis.

    Also, this is a discussion for those from Lemmy.ca, though I appreciate you voicing an opinion.
