Genuine question: how can you tell it’s a bot? I’ve never able to pick out a bot from an actual human.

Mostly a guess game, brand new account, blocked content on profile, on communities that are very popular and some other things that you can get from checking the account behavior. But in this particular case it might not be, might genuinely be a brand new account or someone using their throw away account (forgot to flip back when commenting).

Who takes the time to click on every comment to check the profile’s date and content to see if it might be a bot?? That just seems odd to me. And time consuming.
