I am being convinced to switch away from using bots, and starting to think that might be the right thing to do. The catch 22 though, is that in order for everyone to get the most from this platform and grow their accounts without bot use, it requires being in a circle of users that actually read, upvote, and comment on other people's work. What I've noticed from my own feed is that once a user grows to a certain level: they stop interacting with their followers except on their own posts. They obviously grew to that level with support from the community, but then drop the ball in "giving back." Enter the bidbot.
