I agree too - I won't sign up for X. The bot used to fix that. The fix got fucked because it depends on permission. Now the bot berates posters instead of helping those that don't have an X account.
The point was made by @nerd2ninja, here: #1555006. We can have the discussion there. If you think it isn't visible enough, start a post. It doesn't need to be C&P'd under all the posts by the bot though, that is spam itself.
This whole discussion is retarded. Do you want the primary source or not?
If you want to be informed first use X. stacker.news is a content aggregator with maybe 12 active users. I don't care about any of their opinions of a more successful social media. If roman storm posts on stacker.news then I'll give a shit what @nitter has to say.
So the point of my original message is if you like X so much, go use that and leave me alone with my 12 active users, but if you're going to share content with us, let it be something we can actually read and engage with, because you're otherwise just being annoying.
I won't bother with my specific opinion on the automated posts nitter is making since it seems pretty well hashed out, but I did want to go ahead and add that thought.
Not gonna lie, my first instinct was "oh please, no, not that."
But then again, if the bot is indeed right, why would I be miffed about it? Because it was "righter" than a human?
Humans are wrong all the time and we have no qualms when another one corrects them. Why do I cringe at the thought that bots could get it right more often?
My short answer: Who the heck knows. Maybe I am a special snowflake after all.
