Replying to @⁨return2ozma@lemmy.world⁩

Reddit never gave a shit about bots. To them it’s something that pumps up their active users numbers to woo their investors. They’re only doing this so they can force people to view their ads that are designed to look like posts.

Who goes on Reddit nowadays anyway?
