Yeah the new media bias bot that posts on many communities uses formatting that looks fine on Lemmy UI but weird in sync
I really hate bots like that. I know the creators mean well, but posting on everything just makes it meaningless.
There is actually evidence that the creator does not mean well at all. And it very well might be a propagandizing bot that is trying to shift the Overton window by labeling center and right leaning media as left biased.
Right? And it makes it a lot harder to know which posts actually have comments. I wish it showed none if the only comment is a bot I've blocked but I understand that could be more work than it'd really be worth. It's relatively minor.
Had to block the bot because it was so obnoxious. Good to know it's sync causing the issue.
