While I want to block content bots, I don’t want to block useful bots like @CommunityLinkFixer@lemmings.world @remindme@mstdn.social. Because of this, I will block them one by one. I am sharing it here for community benefit. Any addition/removal is welcome.
- @linkbot@lemmy.link
- @bot@lemmit.online

Technically there is. Bot accounts can be market as bot accounts and you can decide to show bot accounts. There are buttons for this in the settings.
But if bots are not marked as bots, there is no way.
Problem is finding the difference between repost bots and bots that are helpful like automod and link redirectors.
