Searching for @followbot at my Profile Seach, I get:

"Followbot

@followbot

Automated

Personal note
This bot is used to improve federation of my instance.

Feel free to follow back, I won't post anything.

I should be respecting #nobot if it's in your bio."

[French deleted]

If this concerns you, #Mute and #Block

Personally I have no interests in building a bot's (and its owner's) Following account stats

Why can't the owner just Follow profiles organically like every one else?

Max Mustermann
@lina @VIPPER @meso @eragon Another castrated dude. I hope he actually respects the #nobot in my bio.

@Dianora or maybe the damn bots do not respect #nobot. Many don't.

Dianora (Diane Bruce)

Hrmmm I have #nobot in my profile and I *still* get those damn bots boosting me. Maybe it's case sensitive ;) or I made a mistake?

J'ai changé ma description, parce que j'avais peur que le #nobot soit pris comme un instruction de ne pas faire de demande de suivi destinée aux entités qui s'identifient comme non organique. Vous êtes bienvenu-es, je vous aime! 💙

@eatyourglory @noondlyt It's a proposal to add an extension/field to the protocol to let people explicitly express consent or lack of consent for a few different types of uses of their data. Something that could very well be a thing in ActivityPub too, if it isn't already. Sort of like the #NoBot hashtags people put in the bio, but in a more organized format.

@TOrynski Mniej więcej ekwiwalent hashtagów typu #NoBot wstawianych do bio na Mastodonie

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:

@MalthusJohn we allow bots on mas.to, but have very specific rules about how they can operate:

“All automated (bot) accounts must enable the bot flag in their account preferences, respect #nobot markers, and post as unlisted unless making less than one post per hour.”

So they’re easy to block and won’t flood your local timeline.

I’d say our moderation team is great, but, then, I’d be biased. 😉

Seriously, though. I think we do a pretty good job, and we’d love to have you.

Poll time (Multiple selection possible):
Should I make a "Summoned MIKU" bot that posts the "OOO-EEE-OOO" video to every post mentioning Hatsune Miku (and ofc respects the
#nobot flag)

And

Should I look into a bot that Markov-Chains Bible verses? (could be offensive to people who are Christians)

Sudaksis :demisexual_flag:

@AccidentalHaiku Your bot found and boosted my post that used no hashtags, meaning it had to scrape and process text. I also have had #NoIndex and #NoBot in my profile for years now. Does this bot intentionally disregard the filter flags or is this an oversight?

Please correct this to respect the flags some of us use to prevent this kind of data capture.

@vint
Во-первых, что такое тег #nobot
Во-вторых, ты сам ввел домен и нажал кнопку авторизации.
В-третьих, эти «сервисы» работают на уровне жабоскрипта твоего браузера.

Что конкретно ты не одобряешь?..

Винт Прокс

@johan Оба этих сервиса полезли мою аватарку тырить, несмотря на тег #nobot в моём описании профиля. Не одобряю.

Mah dubito, sta su un'istanza di Nostr, «Nostr is primarily popular with cryptocurrency communities, primarily Bitcoin users. Jack Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter, has endorsed and financially supported the development of Nostr by donating approximately $250,000 worth of bitcoin to the developers of the project», en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nostr
Poi inzomma s'è sempre detto, i bot devono fare quel che fanno se li menzioni o li segui, possono farsi conoscere mandando periodicamente qualche post pubblico senza menzioni in cui si presentano, tu se lo vedi e vuoi lo boosti, ecc.; diversamente il rispetto di eventuali #nobot o #nobots nella bio dell'utente è il minimissimo sindacale, ma quello non si sa nemmeno se li rispetta, quindi tra l'altro probabilmente no.

Je n'accepte pas d'abonnement de personnes qui n'ont aucun post, aucune présentation, je suis en mode public pour l'instant, histoire de découvrir, faire connaissance mais le mode public n'est pas celui avec lequel je suis à l'aise, donc ne m'invitez pas si votre profil est vide, ou alors exprimez-vous en m'envoyant un message, merci.
