Reddit doesn’t actually own any of the content, right? Neither do any of the contributors? Seems like a good way to fuck Reddit.

    Fun fact, if you change the setting in your account to not see bot posts then they go away :)

      Only for accounts actually labeled as a bot. Thats basically just a flag that can be turned on and off, someone who is going to make a bot for malicious purposes such as spamming content probably won’t flag it properly.

          well, yes, i dont think there’s anything stopping you from doing that in any way. But the bot account flag is basically just honor system is my point. I wouldn’t expect it to be a rock-solid way to deal with bots. Only the good/non-malicious actors are going to properly label themselves.
