I didn't mean to imply that all bots are spam, or that they aren't useful in any way. I wouldn't be opposed to community-specific bots, like one that provides a series summary on a community for TV shows.

I just really don't want to have like a third of comments being bots. The community numbers are still fairly low, and Lemmy users are (for the time being, anyways) generally tech-inclined so bots could rapidly be a much too large part of posts/comments. I'm here because I want to interact with people, not bots.
