Hello all. I'm kinda new to this. Bit of an old fart trying something new. I was thinking about using bots to upvote posts and starting to look at that side of steemit as I'm unsure if it's better not to use them and try and grow naturally. Or give them a try to gain real followers. I've been doing Dtube fishing & boating videos and only recently figured out @ginabot. I've now realised that some of my followers are bots. How disheartening. I'm at that point. I feel that the time spent editing and filming is a waist of time. (I think one video made it trending once. Not even sure how. )
Anyway as you describe in your post some of these bots are not good to use. Which leaves an old fart like me confused. Maybe I should try them to gain a few fellow fishermen followers.
Any advice steemians ?
Also any way of getting rid of bot followers. Or should I leave them ?.
