They just seem to be automated posts from reddit, with no comments.

I never actually read them because I kind of boycotting Reddit and can’t really interact with them anyway, so they just clog up my feed.

Does anyone else find them annoying?

    Yeah, I thought the suggest a community community there would be useful (and I nicked the idea) but the bot reads the request, sets up the community then copies posts over from Reddit.

    It’s come up elsewhere and pretty much everyone blocks the bot (click through to the profile and you get the option).

    It’s early days and we are still figuring everything out but seems like a poor way to add content.

      Yeah; having to pick through a flood of zero-effort content in order to find the good stuff is not really what I’m looking for in an aggregator. Will see if I can find that ‘block’ button myself…
