Some people seem to really enjoy the articles posted by the content bot, but others seem to think that the bot post too many articles and clog up their RSS feeds. Come give us your opinion in the straw poll.

I think it also depends on the rate of bot posts, when they post many posts within the same minute it's just a wall of posts with little value, for example there's 100 posts so each post will at most get 0-2 comments.

If the bot instead adds a single post once a hour/day depending on how active the channel is it could be fine. Because then people have time to discuss each post.
