  • A quick rundown.

    Basically they make a reddit account, let it age like milk. You know, keep it in the basement with 0 post history of any kind for half a year or so. Maybe multiple. Than they activate it, it spam posts, and it never responds to users like a human would. Even stealing comments and such.

    Those are the main symptoms. OP not responding to being called a bot is especially the major red flag most use.

    Edit: When I say OP, I’m using it to refer to reddit users in this case. Not the OP of THIS post. For him, thank you for the laughs:)


  • I sometimes go back to reddit to see what’s happening to it. Yup. It’s shitting itself.

    Bot accounts everywhere in both comments and posts. It’s so common in fact that you just need to scroll a small post to figure out either OP or the commenter is a bot. also chugs Lemmy

    Thankfully, Lemmy knows how to pump us full of bot-free content and have us asking for more.
