I am risking stirring up the beehive again, but, does this new bot tag do literally anything except add a label to an account?
@InspectorCaracal nope!
@squirrel then why is it being done?
@InspectorCaracal We Want To Be Discord, i think
@squirrel doesn't Discord have different privilege and usage sets for bot and user accounts?
@InspectorCaracal sure, but someone looked over the code (i think it was agiri?) and it literally is only cosmetic in tootsuite
@InspectorCaracal it may be co-opted to do something in the future, but right now it only sets an activitypub flag and shows in the ui
it doesn't change any other functionality
