Comment on Reddit repost bots taking over entire communities

As long as the bot is allowed to be there it’s not a problem it’s not ideal obviously. It should be considered if it is actually a good idea will the community ever develop if it is just already 100% reddit reposts?

I think it’s kind of a chicken-and-egg problem. Hopefully the community existing and having regular posts increases the odds of user interaction like comments and votes, which would naturally lead to more and more posts from actual members. Hopefully whoever is running that bot can wind it down while actual engagement ramps up.
