At least on the communities i follow. Every so often I come across a thread where i recognize most of the users there even in the big communities with over 30k members and I haven’t even been on lemmy that long.

There are prolific posters and some bots that post nearly half of the content that gets popular on a particular day. Commentors I think there’s a healthy mix of regulars and users I don’t recognize.
I block the bots when they show up. One whole community stopped showing on my feed when I did that.
There are entire instances that are nothing but Reddit repost bots.
Yuck. Thankfully I’m not seeing too may yet on my several instances. If you care to share publicly or in DM, so I can block them, I would be so grateful. Thanks either way.
I just checked my blocked instances. zerobytes.monster is the only one I know for sure. Couple of others I’m not sure why I blocked. Most of them are to filter out languages I don’t read from the All view. Possibly lemmit.online.
Tyvm. Leaving notifications so I can have a look tomorrow.
