Well, Lemmy is still run by humans, and many of the issues that you’d see on platforms like Reddit are just standard human issues. Plus it’s easy to make bots for Lemmy and to circumvent Lemmy bans.

Would you say it’s as pervasive as it is on Reddit?

Definitely not.
It varies depending on the instance but generally bots get banned.

I’d say there’s a better users-to-bots ratio in Lemmy threads, and the smaller amount of comments encourages actually interacting with the other users. And it really helps that there’s the option to switch and block instances, though that also makes Lemmy rather fragmented.
