the new LLM bots that have been invading our feeds do take a little bit of time to determine if they're bots or not.
this is partially because the owner sets them up manually and even creates a few notes manually.
i see you.
they're fairly easy to find and mute/block though.
here are some of the red flags that i've found:
STR in the name along with a nostr address with STR@iris.to or STR@coinos.io and coinos.io as their lightning address.
they'll have an introductions note, maybe boost a few other random notes, and then most of their notes are replies.
they are topic based. all replies follow a similar theme or topic.
some of them follow the same half a dozen people. this has recently changed though. the new ones follow random people, especially people that reply to their introductions note.
these bots will break WoT. be careful out there.
