Yes and no. Each one of those users represents a real reddit user and their comments in the bridge threads.
So a bot isn’t creating the content, a bot is mirroring the content into Lemmy.
Yes but if I reply to anyone there’s never going to be a response, because it’s 1-way.
So it will flood lemmy with a load of content that effectively stunts actual engagement because people have to spend time sifting through it all to find where the real users are. The end result being that a subset of users don’t bother and potentially give up on lemmy all together, which has a snowball effect of further reducing real engagement.
