    I’m sure that they don’t have an economic agreement with that fake up votes website

      Owning an “upvote company” is literally the only reason on God’s Earth that anyone could give seven shits about content and voting on reddit.

      It may have had cultural impact back in 2016, but that was almost a decade ago and the world is different, reddit is different.

      Now it’s just bots arguing with bots and every post is a surreptitious paid ad for something. People haven’t quite “move on” but they certainly don’t give reddit communities the relevance they once had. People broadly roll their eyes at reddit. In the last couple offices I worked in, the people joked that you’re “never allowed to share something on Teams if it came from reddit” and “reddit is a dirty secret, everyone knows we browse it, but it’s shameful to admit it.”

      Sorry reddit, the cool factor has left the building a long, long time ago.
