  1. It's often wrong

  2. It's a bot and yet I still see it with the option to hide bots. Someone said it was flagged properly the other day, but since it's the ONLY self proclaimed bot that isn't filtered by the "block bot accounts" option in Lemmy, I call bullshit.

I have it blocked so I didn't notice that it slides past the bot filter. That is interesting, but blocking it works.

Because your average lemming is a wingnut who thinks anyone to the right of Stalin is a fascist.

If you need a bot to tell you a source is or isn't biased, then you shouldn't be reading the news in the first place.

I'm mostly in favor of leaving the comment-clogging bots back on reddit where they can all talk to each other without me.

Not sure if this is the same on every instance, but on my profile there's an option for "show bot accounts"

Just uncheck that bad boy and self-identified bot accounts don't even show up.

Because they don't want to take 3 seconds and block the user.

I wonder if the same clients that don’t correctly render the collapsed paragraphs also don’t correctly render the block button?
