Severely reduce them? Ban advertising. As it stands, you can spin up hundreds or even thousands of free accounts on any given site for not much investment, which means banning a troll account doesn’t do much. Without advertising, the web would require you to pay for access. If people have to pay real cash for every BS bot account and trolling shitpost, they would be less inclined to spam or harass people.
Get rid of them entirely? Not happening.

What would stop advertised from buying accounts?
Cost, bad PR, etc. Wouldn’t end the BS entirely, but it would decrease the general BS level.
