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.

The lemmit or whatever bot was the first “user” I blocked here.

It might not have been bad if they’d stuck to news articles, but so much content is more personal in nature and it feels gross to see it botted.

I’m not going to give advice or empathize with a bot who basically just stole someone’s question or story. OP isn’t even here, they aren’t going to see our comments. Just feels like talking about someone behind their back.

One of the things I love about lemmy is how much of the content and conversation is actually authentic.

Those bot posts are spam and need to go away.
