Serious question, because I get a similar "TIL" on my mastodon thread and saw this and had a similar thought - would you prefer to see no "TIL" content posted by bots? I don't have any stake, but they do provide 3 benefits that I personally enjoy, as much as I'd prefer it was "organically" generated content:

  1. Some posts are insightful, others I can just ignore/move on.
  2. It provides a way to interact with the broader "fediverse" community about certain topics.
  3. Helps avoid visiting sites like Reddit by virtue of having less content here and looking elsewhere.

More on topic - here's a pic of the couple, for anyone interested:

No, good bots providing valuable and relevant content is fine. Many bots do a better job at posting content than humans.

Just don't let the AI bots write the content, I mean

They're contentfillers though. I don't mind it much.

Yeah: it's less the shitty bot thing - they are shitty, but - and more the Linking to Reddit thing.

Given the chance to rank it, from worse to best, I hope we'd all ditch

  • shitty reddit, for
  • bots pushing to Reddit with cheap, lazy, linked spooge; for
  • bots with cheap and lazy content inside the walled garden of Lemmy; for
  • bots with good content tuned for our interests; for
  • actual people sharing actual new and interesting on-target shit which we then discuss.

... So we're taking what we can get on the platform and hoping for evolution to speed up.
