I just found a account where it’s comments are all the same stuff over and over again. It seems like spam bot. I thought only reddit had a bot problem but maybe Lemmy has it too?

Here’s the account: https://lemmy.world/u/circuitai

How did I find it

So, for those wondering how I found it:

I first come across that account on https://lemmy.world/c/BestOfAi

Here’s the comment that caught my attention:

    Please report them, this is a clearcut case that admins can take care of.

    We don’t have any magic technology here to block all bots, but we do get rid of them when they are found

      Most of the bots were put there by the admins

    There is an option in settings to turn off bot accounts. Right?

    In my opinion, lemmy is far better than reddit.

    Also you are in a more popular instance, that can also be a reason you are seeing more bot accounts.

      That assumes the bots correctly mark themselves.

        If they don’t, report them.

        No, there are chances a bot might leave the bot account option unchecked. In such cases mods or users who detect such an account will ban or block it, I think.

    No. Not full. There are some present but there’s also an ignore button present.
