Bot flag
(reddthat.com)
This community is for us to chat about anything and everything, including support topics!
There is no defining specific rules for this community and it can be anything from "I do not like the weather" to "I've won the jackpot and want to give all the money away to charity!" ๐
Before posting, have you read the rules?
For anything else, try a search and see what turns up, if not post away!
If you are not a bot you shouldn't use the bot flag. Lemmy allows you to filter out all bot posts. So it is possible that by having this flag enabled on your account people have been missing your posts and comments.
I unchecked the setting. Will my previous posts still be hidden for users who disabled bot posts?
On Reddthat, it should be fine now. But across the wider fediverse... maybe? Post updates don't travel well, and honestly I'm not sure if people have tested this type of edits. But moving forward your posts will be fine.
I checked your account and the other post looked like it had a good amount of interaction so I doubt if it would be a problem. At the end of the day most people don't change their settings to exclude bots, as bots are (probably 25%?) the content creators currently.
