I think that account was compromised a while back, it looks fine now again. I don't get the point though, why even bother making a repost bot. It's not like they gain anything from it.
Not that I have anything against the top bloggers, but I do hope the 2026 list will differ from the 2025 list. I'm here to read about varied tech content!
