This post is a disaster.

It says "An experiment in 2020s incentivizing the workplace as a dot-com-era adult playground where work also" three times.

I get that it's embedded or whatever, but reading this post was like having a stroke.

This bot always does this. It takes the opening blurb and copy pastes it, without realizing that the crawler returns the blurb as part of the blurb, and that Lemmy also displays a preview of the first few lines which is, you guessed it, the blurb.
