I mean I can certainly understand where the confusion may have come from.

Oh that’s weird, no idea, thanks 🤣

Yeah skimming it very briefly, it looks like your instance doesn't even show bot indicators, so, no way you could've known really. But there should be a button to turn it off somewhere in your user settings, probably down near the bottom.

I don't have a "bot account" indicator, so ... no. Though I have been confused for one.

Sorry, no idea why it says that but I’m pretty new to lemmy so it’s probably something I did, I’ll look into it

Sorry I snapped at you, being mistaken for ai or bots is a sore spot for me
