To be fair, if a community is active enough, it makes sense to have an autobot in place, mods can't spend 24/7 monitoring the community.

There are spammers who regularly register and post links to whatever they are advertising.

Probably true. I like to think that's the good use case for downvotes but I know Fediverse is trying to get away from that a little.

I also forget that most instances don't have manually approved registration Come to think of it I don't suppose sopuli did. It would help, spammers are everywhere but they tend to avoid having to exert effort over many repetitions of a grift attempt
