IMO it’s not just astroturfing, the general sickness of social media has spread into every subreddit now. Lots of unqualified, angry comments, or none at all. I think during the pandemic and the Ukrainian war the user base and engagement dynamics have changed. I find Reddit to be less useful for anything recent. There is a void of quality content for the last two years. It’s not just burrowed. The frontpage is only bot-reposts, ragebait and violence porn, now, and I think many sane people left Reddit or became rage junkies themselves.
