You Sound Like a Bot

It doesn't usually mean "boring" in my experience, rather it usually means that the person is being unusually verbose and explanatory for the environment. It's used more like a synonym to the insult-meaning of "autistic".

So mansplaining is actually just meatspace botplaining.

Mansplaining is basically botsplaining but instead of the inappropriate context mismatch being overformal or overly explanatory discussion in a casual space, it is overly patronising or again overly explantory discussion to a woman. Both are possible online and offline.
