Most postings on lemmy are simply Reddit “archive” bots. Why is this so prevalent?

Day or two a go while browsing feed set to sort all and new, i saw there was a bot posting same news article three different communities, all different instances, and a another bot posting the same exact news article fourth time on the same community that allready posted.

I dont think it is necessary from bot to post same content on multiple communities.
