You might have seen my lemmy tagginator which I announced here and I explain its purpose in its README.

As I explained there, the purpose is to help introduce discovery and more engagement on lemmy from the microblogging space.

Some things about it.

You can add extra tags

Normally the bot will always tag as #Piracy, but you can add more tags from those supported. The current supported tags are #Torrents, #Arrs, and #Usenet

Feel free to suggest other optional tags

You can skip the Tagginator

Simply put #SkipTagginator in your body to prevent the bot from posting. Use this if you don’t think that post should be boosted in discoverability.

You can avoid seeing the bot

I see a lot of people downvoting the bot. Mates, just block the bot account. It’s that easy.

    What in the wide world of fuck is the Lemmy Tagginator, and more importantly, why?

    is this something we need here?

    From what I understand, the bot serves no immediate purpose or function for Lemmy users, but it helps strengthen ties to other parts of the fediverse (like Mastodon).

    I’m personally indifferent to the bot.
