Honestly, don't pay attention to these idiots. Don't feed the trolls. Post what you want, when you want. Thanks for contributing instead of being a miserable fuck like others in this thread.

I'm replying to this comment, but this is really meant for both of you.

OK, so in this case, OP is an actual human and not a bot.
There's usually little point in accusing an account of being a bot outside of reports. Hell, I've probably done it myself in the past, but it sucks.

Thing is:
If they were a bot, then they wouldn't care.
If they weren't a bot, then that's just hurtful.

I'm sure everyone can see how being called a bot isn't fun.
Then again, lashing out through DMs also fucking sucks.
Lemmy is also dumb in that the recipient of a DM currently can't delete it, making DM abuse kinda bullshit to deal with.

On reddit, you'd both have received a vague boilerplate message about nothing, but on here there are actual humans involved and this one likes to imagine we can somewhat get along, or at least ignore each other without being toxic.

This isn't meant as a judgement/endorsement of the quality of whoever's content, just there's little point in such fighting amongst ourselves.

Peace.
