I blocked them and it's definitely an improvement.

If you block them do you still see things like tldr bot?
Sure, I only block the specific bots I don't want to see. Mainly the Lemmit bot, which is the one reposting all the reddit content. Other bots are unaffected.
Thanks for mentioning that. I left the communities that employ them but your solution makes more sense.
Go for it. I blocked most of them and it's definitely better.
Definitely block them if youβre not interested. Your feed will improve immensely.
I recommend asking your instance admins to ban them.
