Just block it?

I personally find it pretty useful, but you do you.

Half the time it just spams the comment section with incoherent nonsense. Whenever I see there is a comment on something and click to see what it is all I get is this stupid bot posting a worse version of what you can already read by just opening the post.

I mean...

You kind of just did what you're complaining about. At least the boy is relevant.

But, the bot posts in the same subs, and always posts.

So just block it and understand on those subs if there's only one comment, it's probably the bot.

It's a very very easy fix on your end, or you could keep arguing that something a lot of people fine useful should go away because you can't handle doing that

I’m not a huge fan of it myself, but it’s easy enough to block and move on with my life. Enough people seem to like it that I don’t think it’s worth taking down as long as whoever is developing it is still interested in the project.

It makes it so easy to read an article that is 99% adds and useless words.

Most of the time it cuts out important information and at worst it's incoherent nonsense.
