Posting this because @sanitation@lemmy.today doesn't care to lift a finger to vet the unfettered slop they post here; this is the real article.

Thank you for posting the actual article. That sanitation droid has posted 35 articles today alone, I doubt he even clicks on links before he hurries to post.

They do mentioned they're using bot to do the posting, so they're kinda like a cyborg than a droid.

Can you point me to the comment they mention this?

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ooookay, can't seems to find it anymore, probably deleted or something. I remember when they first set up the account and a lot of slop is getting through per day, someone complained about it, and they mentioned that they're in the process of adjusting the bot.

actually they should be banned for not marking the bot account as a bot account. if they would, you could just hide them all with the lemmy setting
