No, we absolutely do not agree on this.
Even if bots were AI (they aren’t, for the most part), their presence propping up dead communities DOES NOT HELP ANYONE. If nobody’s there talking, it’s because there’s nothing to be said. Either leave it lie until people show up to talk about that topic again, or let it die, and let a different community take its place. Nobody is harmed by communities running out of steam. Conversations do not have to go on forever.
This. I only come here because I’m interested in what citizens of the fediverse have to say/think is interesting or important.
If I wanted to know what some bot thinks is important I’d be on a bot aggregate site. Scraper bots are no better, If I wanted redditors to be setting my reading agenda I’d be over there.
