Sometimes when I post something, I'll have a "channel" (which generally is some annoying bot) boost it. Is there a way to stop this? I'd rather not be boosted by these annoying channel bots.

@markgrieveson block the account is the only solution I know, plus report it

Thanks. The server for a lot of them is "newsmast.community". I checked but it seems I, as an individual user, can't block a server. So I'm just gonna search for the various bot accounts from there and block as many as I can find.
