Why does shitjustworks have so many bots? I see certain communities like this where brand new accounts just spam random images. I have a dozen new accounts blocked every day and it’s getting tedious.

What is their purpose?

I have wondered about these Blogspot repost accounts, too. Their posts seem harmless (?) but pointless and strange.

There a preservation bot that posts the OG reddit posts but doesn't include any of responses that makes that post useful (build a PC, troubleshooting, etc)
