I'm sorry but someone wearing camo is not "interesting as fuck"

    It's a bot post, they just take whatever garbage is on reddit and repost it without any attempt at curation.

    I'm pretty sure it isn't a bot seen as they comment from time to time but I do agree that I'm sick of the trash they repost constantly.

    It's automated posting so it's bot. They use a Firefox extension instead of an API but it's ripping and posting automatically.

    This is one of their many bots. Sanitation, Time2lose, grumpus_maxinus, etc - all the same person running several different bots because they got banned in their original accounts.

    Oh no, take the quality content from the paedo site without giving them any traffic... what ever shall we do? *clutches pearls dramatically*

    I mean, you or they could just block OP, but that wouldn't stop them from taking traffic from Reddit. Hell, I block people who post dick pics in spaces not dedicated to dick pics. I realise it won't stop them from doing that, but it's not my place to stop them. That's what moderators are for. I don't want to be a moderator. (I do run a community, but I haven't used Lemmy's moderation tools yet, and do not look forward to having to.) I just want to enjoy my experience here.

    re-read my post and tell me the part where I said anything about having an issue with taking traffic away from reddit. You'll struggle, because I said nothing of the sort.

    My issue is that these posts are universally garbage, they provide nothing in the way of background information, external sources or links that can be verified. Sure, I could block this specific bot account, but they've got multiple and do the same shit in other comms and I am a bit tired of playing whack-a-mole.

    Sure, I could block this specific bot account, but they’ve got multiple and do the same shit in other comms and I am a bit tired of playing whack-a-mole.

    The arduous task of clicking the user, clicking the block button. Even if there were a dozen accounts, you could do it in less than two minutes and be done with it.

    I'm pretty sure it took you longer to type your ranting about it than it would have taken you to block every account that seems to bother you.

    This is kinda like the anecdote about the family that gets a new kitten every time a coyote eats one - at some point, you're feeding the coyotes.

    So maybe rather than trying to bring everyone else down, maybe... just maybe... try to contribute in your own way.

    Memes are dumb. I get it. I'm older than dirt so most of them go over my head. So the best of OP today was a joke that didn't land with you and some other people (or it did land but you didn't find it amusing). So is the best you're going to do today to bring others down? Because, pro tip: This is all of you I'm seeing. Maybe you did some amazing stuff elsewhere, but a lot of people are only seeing this. They're seeing this as your best behavior all day. Maybe that's good enough for you. I dunno. Couldn't be me. Well, it probably has. Likely has. Shit, I'm not gonna lie. I've been the asshole before. Not trying to make it me. So maybe you can do better. If not me — hey, fuck me, right? Then at least be better than OP.
