I've found that I am. I sometimes write a reply, see that it was posted by an RSS bot, and delete the draft. OP doesn't exist so what's the point?

Much less likely.

Though I haven't seen these RSS bots you complain about. Is this because you're browsing 'all' instead of 'subscribed'?

I do generally browse All but I see them on communities I'd be subscribed to anyway

I’m a fan of the c/whatever terminology personally

We just call them comms here

There's plenty of them. I like the RSS bots. Brings more content to my feed.
