I know a lot of communities are trying to get more popular by using bots to post relevant content. And generally they do a great job, its like an aggregator inside an aggregator. woa dude. Post engagement might be a better metric, but this graph is visually more impressive.

I'm not really enjoying the communities that use bots to create posts, considering I have to follow multiple variations of the community subject matter just in case. The engagement is definitely more important to me and what I'm missing most from reddit. It's building up though.

The only place where I wish there was a repost bot is the BestofUpdates community (can't remember the name). I crave those stories and don't care if it isn't a human porting them over to Lemmy

Came here to say this too, too many of these posts will be bots.
