How do you know?

I've seen more than enough bots here, and we know that only the tip of the iceberg is actually visible with things like this. Bots nowadays can pretend to be humans scarily well.

    That takes effort though. Reddit streamlines mass bot use by assigning those idiotic generated real-username69420 handles to everyone and banning posts that don't follow a repetitive, prescribed behaviors.

    Because the inflated activity helps them sell advertising space. What's the incitive for botting here? You can Astroturf to handfull of Linux autists, some disenfranchised trans women, and a CCP social credit-building mill. Where's the money in that.

    Reddit has significantly upvotes and comments on their content. It didn't matter when I would post, my comments would usually get ignored and generally downvoted for no reason. When I post here I have way more interaction with people and their responses are unique.

    I'm not saying there aren't bots here. It just isn't the same as Reddit.
