  I agree but the site is honestly filled with bots. I came here to get away from it. The fact that you have to manually get accepted into communities helps prevent that. Look at the posts in AMITAH. Most of it is AI.

    oh, yeah for sure.

    I was literally looking at this stupid Chinese product I bought for installation instructions on YouTube and the comments were just bots spamming how great the product is and how much they love it or needed it.

    no one real is installing a product and then immediately finding the company installation instructions to post how great the product is and how it changed your life

  I’ll see if I can find it but I was reading an article the other day about this person that worked for x. They claimed their job was for creating and training convincing AI bots to spew conservative talking points all over the platform, and heavily. She feared for her life releasing that information

    I don’t use x but that post was not convincing for me, or didn’t leak anything important that can actually pin it on x for doing whatever was alleged.

    although bot usage on social media is 100% real
