Why is your user marked as bot, and why do you bold your whole comment?

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Kind of sounds like a bot. Thing is, I agree with it so I'm torn.

[–] AntaresFederation@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

I can assure you I'm not a bot, just someone who is fed up with people who mask their "altruism" to later unveil their profiteering habits, basically steering away from everything they once stood for, only to become the very thing they hate and preach against.

Set my account as a non-bot account and unboldended the text just for you.

[–] bloubz@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hm. You didn't have to do that, but thanks I guess? The bot thing would be detrimental to you since it is used by some people to filter out posts/comments made by bots

I'm new to Lemmy, I'm literally trying to set my account up, and understand this and the Fediverse. I used to be on Reddit, but had some severe negative experiences there. Lemmy and the Fediverse seems much more polished, and more interactive as a community.

It is, indeed! Good job for making the jump to here. Good luck with discovering things. I think I still see your account marked a bot, don't know if it's some cache thing or what
