Anything with an even mildly AI-adjacent topic is a solid 75% bots right now...

/r/nvidia, /r/amd, /r/hardware, etc, etc..

Absolutely. Frontpage stuff like /r/politics has been mostly bots & trolls farms since well-before the AIpocalypse. AI just took much of the burden off the human hand on that rudder.

They ruined r/foss and on a track to finish off r/selfhosted, my beloved. S/selfhosted used to be mega cool place to be. Today it is plain depressing. And an actual user activity there dropped to almost zero.
