Do people like the bot posts from lemmit.online? (lemmy.world)

I was wondering if people like these, because I see a lot of them on my feed in Hot and while they can be interesting, they all tend to have 0 comments on them, whereas lemmy posts will always have more.

I think I would like the posts more if people did comment on them, for example AITA, ELI5 and a few others don't really function as well without them.

AitA, ELI5 etc. only really works when OP is actually on the platform and can read the comments. Shoveling those via bots into the Fediverse is just spam imho.

Agreed. Why do we need every single post from Reddit to be migrated to the Fediverse? It would be better to just have a similar community and get actual engagement.
