  To me the comments are one of the most interesting things on YouTube. Either on Gaming, Linux or in example on funny video content, with lot of funny comments. I actually use FreeTube client to watch videos anonymously, but go to Firefox and login to YouTube specifically to comment and interact with other users.

    If you are concerned of the possibility of a bot being among other users that has no been deleted what I would suggest is. Get into less popular and less documented videos topics and their comment sections.

    Idk what you are searching for but the more specific a video is to a genre or video topic will certainly throw of an ai chat bot. They’ll eventually say the wrong thing. What you do then is so if they bother correcting themself or do they keep using the same answer. You’l know its a bot because in more niche topics a real person would be more dedicated into saying the right things.

    Linux is well documented but how documented is Palemoon browser compared to Firefox for example. The more specific you get the easier it will be to know if it’s an ai bot. If you talk about everyday topics the ai is always being trained on user generated content.
