Are auto boosting bots usefull to you? Have they actually resualted in your posts getting seen and more likes/boosts from human accounts?
The #fediverse has #bots that seem to auto #boost #posts about just about any popular hashtag, with the creators of these bots usually centralised.
edit: like i'l see a bunch of them coming from one specific server.
@Emi299 I think they're annoying and I don't get why they exist when people can follow hashtags
@lalah While I don't want to say I dislike these bots, I don't know if they add any value to peoples posts by auto boosting because I feel like many users on Mastodon especially, would probably block these bots and might consider them spam or something like this. I don't know if they are usefully for spreading post awareness to others. Or if many people or even open to following these bots to find other users posts that it as boosted.
But I can certainly see that people are split on this one so yeah if there are any uses for these bots, can anyone comment on that i'm genuinely curious about any actual use cases for these types of bots that work on Mastodon.
