is reddit itself using upvote and repost bots now? in c/[email protected]

But upvotes on discussions there are literally 100 times what they used to be just half a year ago. No way that happens naturally.

is reddit itself using upvote and repost bots now? (lemmy.world)
 

I used to be a lot on r/travel. Back then there were posts with pictures that had upvote ls in the triple to quadruple digit range. There were also user questions, usually in the double digits.

Now the majority is just discussions that mysteriously have thousands of upvotes. And some of them quite boring. That must be bots or fakes directly by reddit. No way this happens naturally.

Is this common practice now or is that something r/travel did specifically?

Some trouble in c/[email protected]

Half a year ago I started using Ubuntu for work. I hate it. Everything I want to do I can do with windows as well, just easier. Much easier. What I'm left with is a lot of theoretical benefits I'm never going to use and a whole lot of Googleing how to do basic things.

On top of that the system isn't nearly as stable as Windows. Tons of display issues and even crashes. On a fresh install on a new developer laptop nonetheless. Speak for yourself, but for me the experience on Ubuntu is worse in almost every way.

Biggest concern for me is the broken auto scrolling/updating. I can't use this site properly as long as the list of topics doesn't stay in place long enough for me to finish reading the headline.

Hopefully after this is fixed I'll start contributing.
