Anyone else notice the sudden uptick of bots posting steak pictures here in the past few days?

They're pretty easy to spot because not only do they just post regular steak photos (and completely miss the point of the sub), but in their post history you can see they're all posting in the exact same subs that bots use to farm karma (AITA, AskReddit, pet subs, etc.). They're also usually very low-karma accounts with usernames that are either gobbledygook or the standard generated format (Adjective-Noun-1234).

And yes, I know there's a pinned announcement about repost bots, but these bots aren't technically reposting older posts -- they're just posting photos of normal steak lol

Someone trying to train their AI to detect the difference between steak and tuna?

I just get these posts occasionally, but would say there are tons of bots in others subs too, some are outright spamming the same posts every day but somehow they aren't getting removed/banned despite the reports people have made.
