I'm fine with reposting stuff like News, where it's relatively impersonal and I'm not necessarily concerned with comments.
But I also like having more in depth conversations on the creative stuff. Just having bots post that feels impersonal.
I guess it depends on the magazine.
This is a good viewpoint I think. News is ok. Not sure how you filter that though. I’d rather have bots pulling news from direct sources whether that be world events, game news etc rather than Reddit.
I was torn at first but then I realized my gut feeling when I see them is to not upvote or comment on them. So why have them??
Other people converse on posts other than the OP's though, so commenting on a bot post isn't worthless. Personally I feel the bot posts are helping, my bot posts have been decently engaging, some have a lot of discussions in them
That is also my viewpoint.
I am concerned with comments, but I'm not suggesting we copy those over. The posts are fine, I just wish there was more engagement with them
