The worst IMO is the bot accounts. And the worst of that IMO are the people that behave as if they were bot accounts. The self-promoting thought-leading experts (usually on AI) with a skin as thick as a single cell membrane. At the moment, half of this site on a given day is terrible ads with a swarm of the same people defending each other's attempts at either becoming or staying relevant - utilizing the latest gold rush topic to do so. ___ I'm not quite sure what could be done about this. The moderation does do a good job, so it's not that. I also see that not everyone feels repulsed by the self-promotion. So maybe there is no problem and/or the problem is me. But I kinda doubt that too. Maybe the time of voting systems for ... uh.. "social media" is somewhat over-ish? Though if I was truly signed up on that thought, I would not be commenting here but on I guess lobsters?
