Can someone here explain why the community link fixer bot is spamming comments all over the fediverse?

    The comment is intentional, it helps make the link clickable for other people if the original poster doesn’t correct it. On some apps it’s nearly impossible to navigate such a link and while it would definitely be better to fix the apps, it takes longer than writing a bot. I believe the bot is a good solution and the way it works is good. The only thing I’m concerned about is bugs (like false positives) which I’ll definitely fix if I notice or someone lets me know and potential issues I didn’t think of (like the one you mentioned with Kbin).
