    Regarding the content problem, I see the repost bots are still active, I wish they could be either turned off or have their rates severeöy limited.

    At first glance they make Lemmy seem active and vibrant, but since they are just bots few people vote on the posts and fewer comment on them, they post so much the any original Lemmy content in those communities gets drowned out by the bots reposting Reddit threads.

    During the influx of users after the apikalypse these bots where probably needed to not scare people that there was zero content from different subreddits, but now they just seem to be holding those communities hostage.

        Yeah, I know, but they make Lemmy look like a place full of fake content
