Hi,

I want to gather some opinions on @daily_fourmula@lemmy.ml. It’s a bot posting math dailygames every day. I checked the last 14 days. Nobody commented on the bots’ posts, it barely receives any reactions at all.

I think the bot should stop posting games. I prefer active games over a bunch of automated empty threads. Quality over quantity.

Small problem though, I don’t even know who runs the bot. Banning it should be the absolute last resort. I’ve written a DM to the bot, waiting for an answer.

What do you think about the bot?

    I think I struggle to understand a little. Like, if Wordle is posted every day, we’re happy, but if Wordle and Connections is posted by NY Times every day we don’t think they should?

    I’m not having a dig, I’m just trying to understand.

      It would make sense to me to combine wordle and connections in one post to be consistent, it’s easier to divide by author or vendor rather than similarity. I wouldn’t want someone to start posting something like nerdle individually either, which appears to have 22 separate games now. And I wouldn’t want one author to be given special treatment.

      But this is only my opinion, I’m not the entire community. I’m not even someone who does the sharing results part of this community.

        That would mix up the results of two different games in one thread and look very messy.

          I don’t actually think it’d be a good idea, but you could do it by having multiple top-level contents representing each game and ask that people post their replies to that game under its respective comment.
