    Ever see spelling errors in spam? They do that on purpose.

      Right in email they’re trying to get around spam filters. This is a blog, aka a website. Somewhere in this thread (curse Lemmy clients) someone pointed out the misspelled words and they were rather basic.

      As a web developer familiar with SEO: still not making the connection. And from what I’m seeing lately in the comments here and elsewhere Lemmy seems to be full of people just jumping to conclusions rather quickly.

      Your response really doesn’t answer anything. Spammers and/or bots misspell words in emails. Okay? And that’s related how?

        Bot output can have spelling errors. Example given. Simple as that.

          You’re claiming that it’s written by a bot simply due to spelling errors. I don’t believe you so I’m legitimately asking what the motivation would be, and you just say “well they misspell.”

          Guess who else misspells things? Have you read any recently news publication? They’re just full of spelling and grammar mistakes. Look at me — I can misspell thigns too, I must be a bot.

          Yeah that’s not really an answer, and the reason I’d like you to actually think about it is because I believe you’re confused what the difference is between a “bot” and a simple text generator.

            If it’s a bot then why the spelling errors?

            I simply answered that. Bot output can have spelling errors. Nothing more was said or implied.
