[–] bobagem@sh.itjust.works [S] 7 points 2 years ago (2 children) I did not know. Thanks for telling me. Fixed. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] can@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago (2 children) Thank you for acknowledging my attempt! I've made similar comments to other users at least five times and they all went ignored. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 child) Shouldn't that mean they are... bots..? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) That's all I can conclude.

There are quite a few legit bots around. Especially on the news subs.

Although I keep seeing some people posting the same shit I saw on Reddit.

I'm going to try again now. I'm using sync on Android and I don't believe that I can change the setting there. I can change the setting for whether I filter bot accounts, and so that confused me for a bit about whether I was misinterpreting that setting. I did find the setting in a web browser on my home instance. And I thought I corrected it, and I thought I saved my change. Updates and screenshots to follow momentarily. Is this a setting that defaults to bot‽ permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bobagem@sh.itjust.works [S] 2 points 2 years ago* When I search for this setting in Sync it shows up. But when I click on it it goes to a page that does not offer the setting either at the top level or buried inside of anything else. When I go to look for this setting again in my home instance, I find that it is in fact now correctly set. It was not correctly set when I posted. So my fix stuck. I assume, as someone else suggested, that there's some caching going on somewhere, either on the transmitting end or the receiving end. That's fair: as far as Lemmy knows it was posted by a self-declared bot, even if that puppet later became a real boy. permalink fedilink source parent [–] oce@jlai.lu 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) Still have the B icon next to your name. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago (2 children) Really?
