So what's been happening on mastodon lately, I haven't been on.
I see a flood of same text & #tagged bot posts.
Does that mean the server they're on has gone to shit? People don't care? What...
Real people only, unless you're an exceptional bot with flawless reasoning.
Does anyone know of a good (recent) server review, or can recommend one?
I think I should change and try to find one specifically that does not allow bots.
The one I'm on (c.im) is not bad, except (maybe) that it does not ban bad servers so gets cross-posted content like these bots. OTOH, they appeared in my hashtag steam because they all use the same ones & appear in a row.
@markwyner@mas.to@MalthusJohn we allow bots on mas.to, but have very specific rules about how they can operate:
“All automated (bot) accounts must enable the bot flag in their account preferences, respect #nobot markers, and post as unlisted unless making less than one post per hour.”
So they’re easy to block and won’t flood your local timeline.
I’d say our moderation team is great, but, then, I’d be biased. 
Seriously, though. I think we do a pretty good job, and we’d love to have you.
Hi Mark, thanks for the reply.
I'll check into your server. I need to review the procedure so I don't mess it up.
