A load of mastodon users think groups are just autoboost accounts. (lemm.ee)

Just realised this, most mastodon users who have had experience with groups think they are just bots that auto-boost any posts they are mentioned in.

This is kinda annoying me.

Because that's what's mastodon groups are (e.g. the a.gup.pe). Mastodon doesn't have actual native groups, so bots-as-groups is a work around.

Mastodon doesn't fully federate with Lemmy, so while you can partially interact with Lemmy users and communities, you can't meaningfully partake in conversations here.
