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).
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Edit: is this something we need here? I’m not sure it is.
What are you so mad about?
It’s ugly. It posts a spam comment under every post.
Just block it and done.
Just read the links
It doesn’t change a thing for you.

I’m personally indifferent to the bot.
