Unfortunately it is seemingly being overran by bots. What's the solution? Just read curated lists of blogs directly?

I don't know either what the solution is other than human verification, but nobody wants that. Perhaps the times of semi-anonymous online communities are over and the best you can do now is follow real people you trust that can filter content for you.
Even with human verification, people are going to verify, then conduct bot activity. And worse, use other people's identities to verify, then spam.
