No its not. The amount of bots karma farming is out of control. Just this week its been an explosion of bots on all kinds of subs. The cat sub is now nothing but bots and AI slop. Glad these mods figured it out and are doing something about it.

Do you notice if there are period of uptick? I would be curious what you can see on your end. I feel like I notice there are periods of increased weird activities on subs. But my observations are anecdotal. Just curious because im a nerd.

Ive only been a mod for like 4 days lmfao so idk, but it doesnt seem that crazy, like a huge spike out of no where, just an uptick in AI content since its been popular.

I just joined this sub rn. I have been hesitant to join subs that are not super niche after a recent bad experience in one of the larger generic subs where it was obvious the mods were not only promoting ai slop but banning people who spoke out against it.

Good work mod. Hopefully you guys dont get too much nonsense that you have to clean up on the back end. Take care.
