Bots taking over ph?

Obviously, I appreciate getting new followers...
But during the last 10 days I got about 50 followers with no picture (or AI pic), no social profiles, no activity... probably bots...
Is it just me, or did you see this as well?

I noticed some and am also concerned about the content quality in the discussions. It makes me feel everyone is only interested in gaining more exposure for their product.

@andreiciulinaru I wouldn't allow posts like "help me with my launch" or something... On the other hand, "gaining exposure for their product" is what ph is about...

Not only for you :(
True, I see many in the comments lately, promoting different scams 😔

I haven't experience that yet. I think that the bots prioritise older accounts with more credibility like yours.
and, bot like humans too.

also in the products, I received a lot of generic comments like "wow" "great idea" obviously bots, when you check the profile the same comments in a lot of posts. I do my part reporting all of them

@chrismessina Good to know! Thanks!
Followed you. Not a bot. :)
I've seen it too . Outside of no picture I look at the date signed up at the very bottom and the kitty coins number

Sometimes I see, but not often.
But bots like humen
Sounds like the bots are on a follow spree! They must be big fans of your content. 😄 It's a common trend nowadays, but keep engaging with your real followers - quality over quantity always wins in the long run. Happy hunting!
