What is all this noise about bots? I have 36k followers on Twitter. I'm on it all the time. I don't think I've ever seen a bot. What exactly do these bots do and how would you know they're bots?

- nickthegreek 3y agoRead the blue check replies on ANY popular tweet. If you dont see a bot, you dont want to see a bot.
- jart 3y agoOh that's probably why then. I'm allergic to anything popular. I'm blind to it like ad blindness. When I see it I'm like the way my cat slinks under the couch when the mail lady arrives. I like to use Twitter to hang out with ordinary developers and thinkers like myself. If I wanted celebrities I'd watch TV which I don't. When my own tweets go viral, I get a lot of "great job" or "real nice!" kind of replies. But I don't see why those wouldn't be real people.
