Those that are actually helpful are. Those that try to scam you and pretend they’re human aren’t flaired. So by unchecking you’re only getting rid of the useful bots.
I think any true “bot” would be flaired correctly.
Just FYI: The bot checkbox an opt-in thing with no enforcement, so it’s basically guaranteed that some developer will eventually either forget to tick the box or deliberately choose not to. These are still early days for Lemmy, so who knows how the situation will eventually evolve… but for now it’s basically the wild west.
Question: Are those “bot accounts” flaired to identify them?
