@Calcharger I saw that video on YouTube, where he said it. So at least that is true. But not sure about if he really got fired.

What makes you think it’s artificial?
50k upvotes for that?
Ah gotcha. Thought you meant the contents of the post specifically.
Not going to bother checking reddit myself - not a user anymore. But what are the other posts averaging for upvotes in comparison? Just curious
Here is a post about people killing wasps with gasoline...don't see how it's that cringe. The first clip has the female AI voiceover which is kinda played out, and the final clip uses 'Back in Black' by ACDC. It's not that cringey, but 25k upvotes...
And here is an 11 year old video of Felix Baumgartner jumping from space. It's cool, but is it 34k upvotes in 13 hours cool?
Lol, calls protesters feces smearing toddlers but makes a lemmy account just to talk shit
@czech Wouldn't surprise me if it's spez himself. lol That's too good to be true.

@mutant The difference is, that the delivery guy already get paid.
the same way ~~api protesters~~ reddit thinks they are entitled to having ~~reddit bend to their will~~ api protesters give them free money for nothing after taking away the apps that make reddit bearable
there, fixed that for you
thanks for using Leebra!

It wouldn't surprise me if the popularity was artificially inflated. Social media has known for a while now that encouraging outrage drives views and clicks. Coupled with Reddit using bots when it was first up to artificially populate the site, there has probably always been some bullshittery going on, it's just become more obvious now. I unsubbed to subs like r/facepalm and all the other rage generating subs because they were having a detrimental effect on my mental health and because it was obvious they were encouraging and driving outrage for clicks.
