I mentioned Reddit in an application. I feel like that would come up in legitimate applications at the moment. Is it easy to tell the bots from actual applicants?
In my case, yes. I asked for a reason written in code (working or not). Since I intend to be a DevOps focused instance, there’s no excuse. Most humans would read the application and I don’t feel bad for denying based on this requirement.
Also helps that after 8 of those bots apps, the message is very similar. If there was a human in that mix, they can dm me and ask for reconsideration.
I somehow missed your first bit about asking for it specifically to not be about reddit. That makes sense.
