What is the point of having a bot parrot everything that's posted on Reddit? (lemmy.ca)

I noticed there's a lot of " This is an automated archive made by the Lemmit Bot." Post. And I am wondering why?

I dont really understand why these are popular. The bots are only copying the OP Post and not the comments.

Honestly, I personally don't like it. But mostly because they are always completely ignored, so there are all this zombie bot posts with no interaction.
