MODERATORS
I don't know, I generally like the tldr bots. Saved me from clicking on a lot of bait from over the years.
The tldr bots are good because otherwise people will base their comment entirely on the headline. Every other bot can take off
There's lots of useful bots besides just summarizers. Reminder bots can be great. Some linkifying bots are also useful (like Marv in r/SCP). Bots can detect malicious spam bots. Subs like AITA use bots to tally up user votes. There's bots for moderation actions, too.
But we really could use a way to get rid of the absolutely useless bots. We don't need terrible spelling correcting bots, a bot whose sole purpose is to tell people not to put "the" in front of "Ukraine", or a bot that lectures people on AMP links.
Posting the non AMP link (I guess without the lecture, is what I'm getting at) is all good though
