After moderating a bigger subreddit and seeing just how much spam there was in the comments and just how many people spend time replying to these bots I basically stopped reading them. Here I haven't see bots yet and at least my home instance watches out that it stays that way.
Haven't seen any identifiable bots here either, on redshit they were everywhere, comment stealers and just plain weird agenda having bots. I hope it doesn't turn into that here, maybe since we haven't really been saturated with bots yet some type of preventative protocol could be put in place? No idea what that would be but it would make sense
I think instance admins will just have to make sure they don't have bots on their platform and block instances that do a bad job at it leading to others getting invaded.
