Isn’t there an option to block bot accounts?

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago

Some bots are actually useful; article shorteners for example.

I don't want to disable all bots just because of a few bad actors.

Yes. Some people just like to complain. There's plenty of stuff that needs blocked that are not bots.
