Please don't expect the community to give you answers to your questions which you then delete right afterwards. Those of us who put time into answering your questions are not doing so just to serve your personal needs, we are here to help build a community knowledge base that others can search and reference.

This has become a chronic issue with Lemmy and its starting to feel like it's a waste of time to answer questions.

    The bot must be upvoting itself because yet again it listed a bunch of random abbreviations that aren't in the thread at all.

    Someone claimed it's not ai slop but a bot with GitHub code but that code doesn't produce this result.
