- ecf 6y agoDefinitely not millions, and definitely not people. I’d imagine bots outnumbered real users in that forsaken place of a subreddit.
- wolco2 6y agoWe should start by asking how many of the daily reddit users are bots vs humans to set a baseline.
- thursday0987 6y agodo you have any evidence that they aren't people? if so, i'd like to see it. actually, i'd like to see any methods of determining if a reddit user is a bot or not.
- wolco2 6y agoIt had almost a million subs at it's peak. The semi-recent crackdown on right wing or in some cases extremely left wing subs has forced many to other platforms. I would say millions have been pushed off in one way or the other.
- Gravyness 6y agoCan confirm this didn't just happen to thedonald subreddit, several default subreddits (i.e. country-specific subreddits, apolicital subreddits, etc) became extremely left leaning, banning different opinions, forcing people to leave, essencially.
- solarkraft 6y agoIt would be interesting to see how many and how it influenced the remaining users' satisfaction.
