That would require for bots to actually be tagged as bots and I’ve seen a couple that aren’t (it’s more like people use their account normally but also use some script linked to an RSS feed to post things as soon as they come out).
Also I don’t want to block ALL the bots, and blocking those specific accounts would kill the feed for some commuties (mostly things like “news”) since nobody else posts but bots or scripted accounts (since people see those accounts posting everything, there’s no incentive for anyone else to contribute).
That’s why I’d like to see lemmy without bots or automatic posts, just people sharing what they actually like and not what other sites tell the bots we must see something.
