i saw a user with the (BOT ACCOUNT) flair.
how do i get that? i wanna be a bot account too…
What does it mean to be a bot account? I saw the setting, but I didn’t know what it meant
It means that you are a bot. For example like Reddit’s automod or all the Star Wars or Lord of the Rings quote bots or also unit converter bots.
And it seems like the first people are already trying to misuse the label.
succeeding at misusing the label.

Do you have to do something special to truly make your account a bot? Like give it a function it can do as a bot? (I’m not trying to make this account a bot though)
The main thing is that the account is mostly controlled by a computer program (=bot) making decisions on when, where and what to post or comment, rather than a human. Whether it actually serves a useful function or is just randomly shitposting is up to you, I guess 😅
on your profile settings on the web is a checkbox to mark it as a bot account.
thank you so much!
can’t wait to get more weird shit beside my name.
It is a checkbox on your settings page never the bottom.
