I am very curious where people who complain about the bots really get to see them.

The only website which became totally useless for me after the general availability of LLMs is OkCupid. It's indeed dead. The rest are fine.

What am I doing differently compared to everyone else?

I'm regularly using: telegram, whatsapp, wechat, hackernews, lobsters, reddit, opennet.ru, vk.com, pornhub, youtube, odysee, libera.chat, arxiv, gmail, github, gitlab, sourcehut, codeberg, thepiratebay, rutracker, Anna's archive, xda-developers.

facebook and twitter became broken for me, but not because of bots, rather because of the "smart feed" ("the algorithm"), which is hiding all posts of my friends and promotes incendiary garbage.

In other words, I am seeing enshittification full-scale, but not the bots.

The only one I'd expect to see them is vk but maybe they can't make money doing it in Russia.

YouTube comment sections are botted.

Ah, I never read YouTube comments. Nothing ever useful there.
