The book was excellent, by the way

That’s funny. It’s a play on an album name and motel 6

It was baby cats

the fact that admins and mods didn’t care makes me understand why they felt the need to point it out in the comments

That is EXACTLY why I did it. I thought that if I could get more users to report those accounts, and if they did, the mods and admins would do something about it.

Not coincidentally, /r/wholesomememes was the worst of all the subs. The overwhelming majority of obvious organized bot rings were operating there. The mods told me they knew and didn’t care because it was an opportunity for users to see content they hadn’t seen before (completely missing the point)

There was r/catsstandingup(?) as well that just responded “cat.” Never considered the conspiratorial angle there…

If I cared about reddit anymore, I’d dig into that

Lol. There is no way to do it efficiently. I did it in the way you described every time, and I reported literal thousands to reddit’s admins (and never got a single response) and was banned by multiple subreddits because I was “annoying” when I reported bots to sub mods. I also called bots out in comments and provided evidence when I did. Nobody cared.

When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I rolled out. I didn’t realize how bad reddit had become and how much I hated the site. I’m much happier here with less content and without a bot infestation. Additionally, I’m sure users, mods, and admins WOULD care if I reported that sort of thing on Lemmy

I was a bot hunter on reddit and was asked to mod /r/kittengifs because of my ability to find them. There were like 5 legitimate posts in 6 months

Is it even possible to own an Orange County?

BJJ might be accessible for you. I used to roll with a blind guy who fucked me up on the regular

Yeah, you definitely need help negotiating

Ah, yes. The totally relevant story about a celebrity bicycle accident in World News…

Alright, fossilesque, this not a fucking meme. 90% of what you post isn’t either, but this is bullshit. Post science memes here. Post SCIENTIFIC STUDIES somewhere else.

Fuck!

Oh, in my school, the octagonal ones were “Mexican pizza,” which I thought was way better

As far as I’m aware, you are correct

Ahh, reddit. Never change…

Maybe read the article then so you’re not assuming wrong

“Yeah, bro, you can just murder anyone you want in the US and all they do is buy you a plane ticket home! So fucking cool”

So, like, the word has suffered from enshittification?

What’s up, Brad?

You might be right, but I moderated three subs and haven’t been back since June (or whenever it was they killed my app)
