I've been seeing a lot of users from alien.top commenting in various threads (mainly sports) lately. They only caught my attention because they are all flagged as bots and I typically manually block most bots (not all because there are some I like). For every one of them their entire post history consists of 1-2 comments or posts. When I took a look at that instance there is nothing there at all and it also shows no users. The comments look human enough but I guess I wouldn't be surprised to learn that all the comments are LLM generated. Is alien.top just someones LLM experiment or is something else going on here?

Replied somewhere in this thread already but I'll post it again here. Reddit mirroring bots are not allowed on Lemmy World. We blocked the communities and defederated from the alien.top instance. I'll add them to fediseer.com later.
