I’m more annoyed they’re intermingled. The small userbase here isn’t posting enough to fill a feed, but the bots do make things weird.

If you’re in a news community, politics, tech space, etc. it can be pretty annoying to have both bots and users posting. Maybe if it was a news community that was only bots or no bots, that would be an improvement.

This is amazing

It’s definitely a problem here. They spam to every news community, then brigade the votes. And, they use a bunch of alt accounts on different instances.

Lol, oh good, they’ve seen this. I forgot to mention, they also brigade. 5 downvotes in 5 minutes.

Lemmy.ml also has a lemmygrad instance that is spamming propaganda and disinformation in all the news / politics subs. The !worldnews here is just about useless since it’s 75% lemmygrad users and their alts spamming nonsense.
