I am relatively new and un-experienced user.
I have an account on Lemmy.ml instance.
I used to be able to vote and down vote posts. I am using Thunder on Android.
All of the sudden i can no longer vote neither up or down. In fact when I do so from within the post itself I get the error shown in the attached image "invalid_bot_action".

Does anyone know why is it happening?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Your account is marked as a bot the (B) icon after your user name. You may beable to untick that in your profile

Oh yeah that's it. Thanks a lot. I must have tucked it by a mistake. I am just wondering why would that be an option 😆?

I guess so that actual bots can be marked as bots, so they do not get deleted. There is also an option to hide bot posts (which I do), for anyone who is bothered by. Bots does not automatically mean spam. There are legit bots useful to grab news and auto-post them faster than humans could. I didn't know they cannot vote, which makes totally sense. Any bots not marked as bots can be reported and they will get banned (presumably, I don't know).

Sorry for the random late reply. I just created a post and was looking through other posts.

That makes total sense. Thanks a lot for the answer and No need to apologize 🙇
