  I tried to taking a peek at those communities you’ve linked but it seems they’re now deleted. I’m also curious what those are about though.

  One counterpoint is that these bots offer a way to “browse Reddit content” without giving Reddit anything. And if browsing posts is the only thing one is after, one could enjoy the content but not interact with it, not even an upvote nor a subscription (to the repost community).

  However, I don’t know of any way of measuring such interactions other than people telling us that they do.

  Personally speaking though, the best, or worst, or perhaps spiciest part of reddit posts are in the comments. Just the post, without the comments providing the meat of it to me is kinda empty.

  I’m fine either way since I rarely, if ever, encounter such Reddit reposts from bots. I’ve never subscribed to such, and I almost never encounter them in the wilds of “All.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just deleted my reddit account, and it's long overdue.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the only reason I’ve kept my accounts up. I have a script that undeletes any comments that resurface, and a cron job that runs that script at regular intervals. I don’t know if any comments remain. Reddit says there are none remaining, but I don’t trust them. However, I don’t can’t any of my comments (same username here as in Reddit) out there through a web search so, I guess it works?
