I’m curious, why is this bot currently being downvoted for almost every comment it makes?

I don’t know about other people, but I find these comments noisy. I’d rather just see replies to the post from actual people.

Please, just block the bot and you won’t see it again. If there was a way to make the replies from the bot not appear on lemmy, I would add it, but it’s not possible.

Hey no problem :) I totally understand and read through the linked README. FWIW I find the fact that Lemmy is in Rust, pretty… tricky. Getting Lemmy to run on my OpenBSD server started with a couple of crazy segfaults!

yeah I guess maybe the formatting and the verbosity seems a bit annoying? Wonder what the alternatives solution could be to better engage people from mastodon, which is what this bot is trying to address.

edit: just to be clear, I’m not affiliated with the bot or its creator. This is just my observation from multiple posts I see this bot comments on.

I wonder if perhaps wrapping the majority of the text in a spoiler would work. Though I don’t know if that translates over to Mastodon (if not, it might look a bit funky on that side).
