Votes and fake engagement keeps your post on front page longer, which spurs more organic interaction.
This has been marketing 101 for at least a decade. Reddit, hacker news, any site with user content is bought and paid for.
- Grimburger 3y agoA warning for people that talking about and linking the reddit votes/user markets while on reddit leads to an automatic sitewide ban. I lost 10 year old account by offhandedly mentioning it existed in a thread like this criticising the behaviour. It's weird they don't want to talk about it but I do understand not linking it. There's mod accounts to some very big national subs up for sale.
- tough 3y agoWould you mind linking it here? HN seems like one of the bastions of free speech, I don't frequent reddit much but I wonder what shenanigans are up there, have seen some wild shit with even companies -stealing- subreddits from the creators lmao
