I would like to create a bot account for a community to warn about duplicate images. First thing that i tried is to create a new account and mark it as a bot, but i couldn’t use mail address i used to create my main account. is there a way to create bot accounts without creating separate mail addresses for them? i would avoid creating new mails just for lemmy bots

      A lot of mail providers support sub-addressing, you don’t have to use gmail. Some use different characters for it though.
